When in doubt run to socialists :(

I wonder of France has made the right choice.

Not necessarily. The Eurozone has been seeing a pick up in support for conservative parties. A Socialist victory in France would only mean that the French already had enough of Mr. Sarkozy and could be looking for a new face and fresh ideas...

Let us see how the new man can fulfil the promises made in these difficult times.

French atleast try to look independent. Hollande's win would have small impact on US-France relationship.

But I can see turbulent times ahead for the Eurozone. Merkel's open endorsement of Sarkozy was the biggest blunder for Eurozone politics.
Greece is once again in trouble.

Socialist ideas in troubled economic times is the worst thing that could happen.
