French socialist Francois Hollande has won a clear victory in the country's presidential election.

Mr Hollande - who polled just under 52% of votes in Sunday's run-off - spoke of his pride at becoming president.

Admitting defeat, centre-right incumbent Nicolas Sarkozy wished "good luck" to Mr Hollande.

Analysts say the vote has wide implications for the whole eurozone. Mr Hollande has vowed to rework a deal on government debt in member countries.

Shortly after polls closed at 20:00 (18:00 GMT), French media published projections based on partial results giving Mr Hollande a lead of almost four points. Turnout was about 80%.

Oh man, I can't wait until Obama calls to congratulate him.

"Is it ok for a US president to call and congratulate a socialist politician? You decide"
"The conversation lasted a few minutes according to White House officials. I wonder what they talked about..."

It's barely socialism.

Raising taxes isn't socialism.
Legalizing same sex marriage isn't socialism.

It just seemed so wrong for France to have a centre-right president in the first place.

It's only communism if you hate freedom.

It's more of a stronger step toward social democracy.

Who cares if their socialists? They could be fascist anarchists, it still doesn't change the fact that I don't own a car.
