I forgot this part. The truth is, there was nothing very new in the 
Constitution. A few pages about human right blablabla before the 3rd 
part.

It was sold as a "yes or die", but it is extremely likely that the only 
one who'll die (politically) are Chirac/Raffarin and a few others 
(Jospin, but he is only a living dead...)

I just feel sorry for the French left now that Fabius has now a new 
image, when he is the one who pretty much started it all as Mitterand's 
2nd prime minister in the 80's.
