The Ministers they were already launched

PS head and far before, it is the worst case scenario which is written yesterday for the UMP. The presidential party hoped to reach the level of the first round of the presidential (31) and dispose of enough votes on the PS to compensate for his lack of reserve of votes for the second round. It is all the opposite happened. If one adds to this quite honourable score obtained by the national Front and the possibility that he has to stay in the second round in a number of areas, opportunities for the UMP to avoid the grand slam left predicted by Martine Aubry, are extremely slim.

Phase of unpopularity

The Party of Nicolas Sarkozy beautiful game of put into perspective the scope of a vote that has so little motivated voters, it also noted that the left is now in the puzzle of the negotiations while the leaders of the UMP fighting the stands as soon as this evening, the slap is not less severe. The pas de deux of Nicolas Sarkozy in the campaign and the fine in attempt to defuse the grumbling by promising to slow the pace in time nothing prevented the assent vote. Nine months after the European elections, where the UMP, arrived at the head, welcomed to end the litany of hard mid-term elections, the party was denied by this second electoral rendezvous, the last is before the presidential election of 2012. It must be said that, since then, the President of the Republic has entered a phase of unpopularity he can't get out. None of its building in the fall won the membership (carbon tax, local authorities, national identity...), the polemics successive (Epad, Henri Proglio salary).

And the strategy of the UMP campaign did not help things. Having decided to "nationalize" the election in November and to send to the eight Ministers list battle, the party changed its message in January, by ensuring that the election was "local" and the need to punish the Socialist region Presidents. Las, the French, with no clear vision of the role of the regions, expressed, when they moved their bad mood. The Ministers, they were already launched.

"Nothing is played.

The first round does not appear to have involved strategic shift for the Entre-Deux-tours again. The majority is very present in this week, including the Prime Minister, who has provided several movements. All its representatives yesterday called for the mobilization, ensuring that "there was play", the UMP and PS to elbow-to-elbow in several regions. Xavier Bertrand, the leader of the UMP, refused the idea of a sanction vote-"where is the assent vote when a French two was not vote".- and justified the results by "l ' scale of the crisis." François Fillon invited the French to reject the idea of regional "balances", because the country needs all public actors to restore growth. He foot ecologists Recalling the advances of the round table, and the traditional right by promising to step up the fight against crime. As Jean-François Copé, Chairman of the Group UMP in the Assembly, he invited "the PS to no longer be playing hide and seek: should say us how much it will raise taxes", has launched.
