The Baseball Crank catches the New York Daily News practicing some of its themes for the upcoming 2008 presidental contest, using the candidates in the upcoming French elections as stand-ins for the expected Rudy vs. Hillary bout:
French pick woman to face rightist in prez race
Nicolas Sarkozy and Segolene Royal advanced yesterday to a runoff vote that will pick a president unlike any France has seen before: a hard-edged reformer pledging a new start, or a woman promising a healing touch...
Royal, 53, perfectly coiffed and dressed in a chic white suit, urged supporters last night to choose a path to a "new France" that cultivates "human values" and cares for the less fortunate.
"I refuse to cultivate fear," she said in a slap at Sarkozy, whose law-and-order image has made him a hated figure in Paris' troubled suburbs, rocked by riots that spread across France in the fall of 2005....
Many are predicting violence anew if Sarkozy is elected. Some voters blamed a strong anti-Sarkozy vote for yesterday's unprecedented 84% voter turnout...
Yeah, just like that strong anti-Bush vote helped Kerry win the 2004 election!
And who, exactly, are the "many" that are " predicting violence" ? The Daily News won't tell you - it runs counter to the storyline - but I can. Look here, scroll down towards the bottom...

And if Obama runs, we'll have a "uniter" vs. a "divider" (it doesn't matter who the Republican candidate is, he will be a divider).
And it won't matter if you oppose Obama on policy points, any whom defy the media's appointed one will be labeled as red-necked racists, plain and simple.
