that's why she's in the conversation, its a backlash vote. I wouldn't be surprised if Macon won because of the moderates abandoning their usual party lines to strategically vote against LePen to block her.
This is kind of my point, although I think there's a lot more going on than people being sick and tired of business as usual. What I'm saying is that if (when) Macron wins in more or less exactly the way you're predicting, that may be enough for people to justify ignoring this backlash and pretending it doesn't exist or isn't a real problem.
