The debat on TV which can be followed here: if some French missed it like me YouTube - Débat Ségolène Royal - Nicolas Sarkozy : partie 1

It was followed by 20M of French!

The debat was very hot

They attacked each other all the way, very different from American debat (Bush-Kerry)!

They have very different programs, very different personalities, not like in 95 with the debat Jospin-Chirac were everything was rather cool... and at a time where French couldn't clearly make the difference between left and right...

I thought that Sarkozy would be aggressive and Royal on the defensive... And it was rather the opposite, Royal was very offensive on Sarkozy and I could see Sarkozy trying to control himself lol

Sometimes it made me laugh with their snicky attacks under the belt
