...classic task of wooing the moderate vote without alienating their partisans. That's a healthier challenge for France than putting out the fires of extremism. Sarkozy's success came in tandem with the collapse of Le Pen, who garnered just 10% of the vote. Le Pen's base proved vulnerable to Sarkozy's unapologetically conservative rhetoric, which featured a tough law-and-order stance, talk of national identity, Christian roots and new curbs on immigration and welfare.

Candidates raise money not to purchase TV time and hire political consultants. They raise money to prove that they can raise money. All the major candidates have rejected federal subsidies in order to avoid the contribution limits that go with them. This includes McCain, whose name is on McCain-Feingold, the most recent failed attempt to curb money's role in politics. When the press started reporting that his campaign was in trouble...
