I read a book on French cuisine years ago called "A Year in Provence". It was written by an English couple who moved there to experience country culture. Evidently everyone else in France hates the Parisians too. They're responsible for the negative rep.

There are some fairly hot matures in French porn. You should check it out.

Uh, that was a national poll that had Trump +2. It was 4 points off. :?

It predicted a trump victory....it may have been 6 points off on electoral margin, but it predicted a trump whim nonetheless. And the Libs were pissed they continually had trump in the lead. They wanted the poll shut down.

"That is to say, although the Times poll pointed to a decisive Trump win in the electoral college, it actually missed the winner of the popular vote entirely, by more than four points."

If I was misleading then I apologize. I'm talking about bias in the vein of confirmation bias, or wishful thinking that causes pollsters to not take a critical look at methodology in the way that they would have if their polls had been showing Trump ahead in swing states.

Not sure when the muslin immigration began in earnest but the book is probably 25 years old and I'm pretty sure they were talking about non-Muslim parisians. Sorry to disappoint.

The Chicago Tribune reports that Russian hackers are attacking the Macron campaign.

It is so invigorating to see all the attention paid to Russians doing what they have been doing for 50 years

Remember "Don't confront the Russians! NUCLEAR WAR!!!" from the left in the good ol days?

Good times

This ^ is wrong
I never saw a landslide poll anywhere

I heard talking heads say it was going to be a landslide but the polls never supported that
Just like the talking heads said Romney in a landslide

No poll supported that view

And, now he's running under En Marche - a centrist political party he founded.

Yeah, En Marche would be left wing in this country. But, remember... this is an election that's happening in France, BDK. Reuters is framing it within French politics and not American politics. They're a centrist French party.

He was also an independent from 2009-2016. What's your point? Your boy-toy Trump was a Democrat before he was a Republican. Same with Reagan. :suspicious:
