Mitt Romney Not Adored In France

Found this on Huffpost. I enjoyed reading it so much, I thought I'd post it here for others' potential reading pleasure:

"Republicans suffer from two stereotypes in France: one advocating a lawless capitalism and the other advocating racist policies. The Republican Party's opposition to affirmative action, for example, is very misunderstood," lamented Pierre Toullec, chairman of the Mitt Romney France political committee, which seeks to explain U.S. policy from the Republican perspective rather than to unite expatriated American voters in France.

Really?!
