Now for the second round!

Sarkozy beat Royal by about 30 to 25 with Bayrou coming third at around 18. First opinion poll for the second round just broadcast on TF2 puts Sarkozy ahead by 54/46. Royal made a point of re-stating in her otherwise platitudinous and rambling victory speech, that any agreement upon new EU constitutional provisions would be subject to another French referendum. This is now clearly Sarkozy's weak point, especially if the point is pushed by Bayrou to his seven odd million supporters!! Democracy in Europe may not yet be quite dead!
