#1 oh, I see. It wasn't because Calderon was conservative. No, no, certainly not! It's because Obrador was crazy. That's the ticket!

#2 2b: this is edited down considerably from the original. As I read the full text, I don't think O'Grady is minimizing the fact that Calderon is a conservative; her newspaper, the WSJ, has not been shy about backing him just because he's conservative.

#6 Obrador sounds like another Mark Latham (Oz election).

Mexico has dodged a bullet.

#9 Jimmuh don't bless an election unless a Commnunist Dictator wins. Sorta the Noam Chumpsky rule of elections.
