Especially considering that we are now celebrating the 20th anniversary of IFE, the Mexican Federal Electoral Institute, it's decision to refrain from commenting on the blatant illegality of the church's interference in politics and simply pass on PRD's complain to the Interior Ministroy, was simply evading responsibility, as Jesús Ortega, president of the PRD put it - giving in to church pressure. Without sounding too alarmist, this to me bodes ill for 2012, especially with Ebrard as the left's candidate: If the church can get away with calling the party "fascist," Ebrard a "dictator," the Supreme Court "corrupt" - what is yet to come?
