What is this rabbit an "expert" on?

But if he thinks le Pen's 18% in the presidential deuxieme tour was a "near victory" he has much company among those with no excuse for such stupidity--the entire French Left which capitulated to Chirac on the excuse of the "fascist menace" and yesterday reaped its reward in the form of a crushing loss to Chirac's "Movement for a Presidential Majority" in the premiere tour of the legislative elections--with the FN vote as trivial as any rational analysis would have predicted.
