Mish Comments

  1. Le Pen stacks up well vs. Macron and Fillon on Jobs, pensions, security, terrorism, and immigration.
  2. The idea she cannot win or is highly unlikely to win is a serious mistake.
  3. Those on the Right may well vote for Macron in that pairing, but will those on the Left vote for Fillon?
  4. I suspect Le Pen would beat Fillon.
