I have no idea if Hollande is going to be any good for France, but I enjoy watching Nick Sarkozy lose.

He'll be good for France, but i don't think he'll be good for the Eurozone right now. His fiscal policy is basically at odds with Merkel's so, we'll see.

I just wanted to post the song, though...

Boring story:

until about two years ago i actually thought Mitterand was a girl. During a game of "Songs named after females. GO!" i held back on that one as a trump... i waited until the Laylas and the Lolas had had their time and then BANG!

"Francois Mitterand"
"er, what?"
"It's a song by WCKR SPGT about the French ex-president putting the heating on"
"Who?"
"Doesn't matter. What do i win?"
"dude, Mitterand was a, well, a dude."
*argument*
*wikipedia*
"ah, crap"

He's in France, he's a country in France

Anyhow, I'm intensely interested to see how this plays out. I'm not sure if Hollande's version of Keynesian economics means he will increase investment in the economy with public funds or whether he simply means to scale back austerity measures, but his level of success may have some pretty notable effects on the future of economic policy.

yeah, the only version i had was the JD bootleg version, in which the lyrics aren't the clearest...
