Yet opposition to Sarkozy remains high, and not only among minorities and young people, who have registered to vote in high numbers, supposedly to oppose him and his heavy use of the police in the banlieues . “Bonaparte” may be about to triumph easily over “Joan of Arc,” as some foreign commentators like to describe the two leading candidates, but Sarkozy’s supposedly “Bonapartist” qualities have fueled a potent sense of apprehension.
但是反对萨尔科奇的势力依旧高涨，不仅仅是那些少数族裔和青年人。他们大量登记投票，大概是要反对他本人及其在市郊用警过度。正如某些评论家对两大候选人所做到描绘一样，“拿破仑”可能会轻取“圣女贞德”，但是人们认为萨尔科奇具有的拿破仑式的特质已经引起了巨大的恐惧感。
