She is elegant, self-assured, strong on what interests her (families,
schools, the environment), sensibly vague on the rest (foreign affairs,
the economy). And according to three polls this month, she could be
France's first female president.
"The china in a bull-shop", as one commentator called her this week, is
S=E9gol=E8ne Royal, a former minister who now heads the regional
government of Poitou-Charentes and, in a field of ageing and
depressingly familiar male faces, is suddenly looking like the obvious
Socialist challenger to conservative Nicolas Sarkozy in next year's
presidential poll.
