Able to claim he'd long denounced the mass immigration and bleeding heart permissiveness he has blamed the rioting and demonstrations on, Le Pen has been effective in mocking de Villiers as a calculating opportunist - or, as his daughter and potential successor called de Villiers, a political "vulture...
