Honestly, it all started bad with the day he was elected.  Rather then meet with the people immediatly as was traditional he instead went to a party held by wealth supporters.  People saw it as him being in the hands of the wealthy.

Weeks later it was found out the reason he had done this was that he and his wife were getting a divorce, but she had agreed to stick with him for a month or two after the election

His wife couldn't be found and he didn't want the embarresment of showing up without his wife.  It was however too late after that and the table was set... a collection of blunders later, and France elected someone largely because he wasn't sarkozy. (Seriously, that's what the polls showed for the first election... most hollande votes were because he wasn't Sarkozy.)

Ah, ok, thanks for explaining!
