Round Down If You Have To

François Fillon is an opponent of François Hollande's interventionist foreign policy, and he is a supporter of peace and co-operation with Russia.

He is wrong about domestic economic policy. But that is of less concern to the rest of us. Not none. But less.

Meanwhile, Marine Le Pen is wrong about everything.

Her election would send the most horrific signal. There would be triumphant pogroms, and not only in France.

Of course, those might not be the two names that went through to the second round. But they probably will be.

And if those are the only two names on the ballot, then you really do have to pick one of them.
