Vicente Fox married his former spokeswoman.
Didn't anyone tell Fox that it is Taboo to mess around with the hired help...Look at what happened to Bill Clinton.
Oh yeah, Your right, he got away with it, but it will follow him for the rest of his life.

It's a line Hillary used in defense of her stonewalling of Whitewater.

I doubt Vicente knows nor even cares what the Pope has to say. Ever notice he always critizing our capital punishment laws, but NEVER our abortion laws?
Vicente Fox is truly the Jim Jeffords of the PAN party.

So I guess you won't be coming down to the Ethical Humanist Society's awards day for Jim Jeffords in NYC? I wonder...

I think Bush realized this as well early in his presidentail term in office.

Excerpt:
Integrating Mexico into a North American market is an attractive prospect for Fox; recent Mexican migration to the U.S. has helped bolster Hispanic buying power to $348 billion. According to the Association of Hispanic Advertising Agencies, last year companies such as Proctor & Gamble, Phillip Morris, McDonald's, and Sears, Roebuck & Co., spent a combined total of $2.4 billion on TV, radio, and print advertising in the Hispanic market. That's a growth of 25 percent from 1999.
While Fox has dollars on the brain, American politicians such as President Bush are more directly concerned with the votes America's new citizens will cast in future elections.

Martha is the PAN's "most likely to win" candidate for the next Mexican presidential election.
