Reuters reports today that Nicolas Sarkozy, a candidate of France's Conservative Party, won the that country's presidential election, marking the third presidential election in a row that conservatives have been elected to lead the country.
Sarkozy won on a platform of reform, painting himself as a "candidate of work" that would loosen the 35-hour work week, trim fat from the public service, cut taxes and wage war on unemployment.
With the hard work of campaigning over, the "candidate of work" got down to business the French way: by taking a vacation. C'est la vie.
