Believe it or not there is a Presidential election campaign going on in Mexico. Sunday marks the day. The three way contest — 4 way if you count the throw-all-the-bums-out “Otra Campana” of the Zapatistas — looks to be very close between the top two candidates. The old granite rock of the PRI is washing into mud with the steady rush of popular discontent all around.

Tom Hayden has a good round up at TruthDig, suggesting that if Lopez Obrador, the ex Mayor of Mexico City, wins a re-write of NAFTA won’t be far behind.

The SF Chron has a short “style” piece on the reachout to the apathetic young.

Ruben Navarrette of the Chronicle has an opinion piece — which he needs to develop better — about the appeal Manuel Lopez Obrador — the “leftist”– is making to family values, the toll forced immigration is taking on families.

If any of our readers in Mexico have any “post cards” to send, we’d like to see them. Manwhile, I’ll try to pay better attention myself.
