'Le Web' Plays New Role in France Race - by John Leichester

PARIS - One French presidential contender wants you to chuckle at his expense with a Web site that shows a virtual version of the usually straight-laced candidate disco-dancing. Supporters of his Socialist opponent have set up a spacious virtual office in a popular online game, complete with handout badges and a steady stream of visitors.

Presidential contenders, led by Nicolas Sarkozy and Socialist Segolene Royal are pouring resources and creative-thinking into the Internet on an unprecedented scale, targeting young voters and the many others jaded by politics as usual and hungry for fresh approaches after the 12-year presidency of Jacques Chirac.

For Segolene Royal's site go to http://www.desirsdavenir.org/ and for Sarkozy's http://www.discosarko.com/
