The autocratic suits of the PRI are back in the saddle again—in part because the Mexican political structure is tired of chaotic drug-war mayhem and wants to give the stability of old-fashioned, genteel corruption another try.So says Seattle-based journalist Brendan Kiley, in an interesting (if a bit off-the-cuff) analysis of what yesterday's election results mean for the drug war in Mexico. Worth a read if you are interested in such things.
My own interest stems largely from the fact that the wife and I have already booked tickets to Mexico City to celebrate (read: avoid celebrating) La Navidad y El Año Nuevo this year...
