The Mexicans insist on clean elections at home, and dirty ones here. Best of both worlds, actually. Good post, but this author really has his pollyanna glasses on. Whether or not this goes down peacefully is barely even money. Obrador is from the same factory that turned out Chavez/Castro/Lula/Bolivia/Peru/Allende/Che Guevara and every other Latino Left-Leaning Lunatic.
What's really laughable is calling the Calderon guy a conservative. He's conservative compared to Lenin ... maybe.

The author is correct that US electoral procedures are a mess. Mexico, Iraq and Afghanistan, among many others, do a much more effective and accurate job of counting the votes.
Whether the results of the election will be accepted by the losers is a cultural thing and has nothing to do with whether the election was well run.
Can anybody seriously claim that American elections are well run?
