So ?
This is my point. He realised that his only chance to be heard during this campaign was to differenciate himself from the others, just like Fabius did with his no to the european consitution.
Bayrou and the deputies from the UDF were elected with voices belonging to people from the (moderate) right 5 years ago. Don't you think these people feel a bit betrayed today, when they see Bayrou winking towards the left like he is doing ?

Yes, to me he is an opportunist, whose only interest is his political career (like many others BTW), and I think his new party won't last for long.
I like the idea of taking the best from both sides, but this has to come from someone new in the political life, not from someone who has always belonged to a political family which he is denying now.

Sorry, I really hate his attitude...
