...This week Hollande promised that in the event of a leftist election sweep, tax cuts passed by the current conservative government would be rolled back in order to start cutting France's enormous debt. Royal promptly begged to differ, noting her presidential platform contained no income tax increases. She argues that France's lofty tax scale already leaves average workers feeling their hard work is being penalized, and raising taxes could slow consumption, a main motor of French economic growth.

...verge of tears. No politician has been this eloquent and this personable in years." Obama's stump speech includes much of the typical Democratic message - more spending on heath care and education, energy independence and an emphasis on improving relations with other countries, often in words that differ little from what John Kerry said in 2004. ("How can it be that we Americans spend more money than any nation on earth [on health care] and yet we still have 46 million uninsured?") But his emphasis is on weaving in his own personal story - the son of Kenyan father and mother...
