Calderón's PAN rallies behind Ernesto Cordero as presidential candidate

A group of 134 prominent panistas declared their support for Ernesto Cordero as PAN's presidential candidate in 2012 in a manifesto entitled "United with Ernesto." They included notably the governors of the Bajas, Puebla, and Sonora, and the family of the deceased Juan Camilo Mouriño, former PAN leader César Nava, and a range of senators, deputies, subsecretaries and other members of PAN closely linked to President Felipe Calderón and his wife Margarita Zavela (including her personal secretary).

The full letter can be accessed here, on the conveniently entitled Web page, unidosconernesto.mx/

I don´t buy earlier suggestions that Calderón is merely using Cordero as some kind of "decoy": This is his preferred successor.
