Alejandro Encinas achieved the "impossible" - reunite AMLO and Cárdenas

In his first campaign appearance in Mexico State, PRD-PT-Convergencia gubernatorial candidat Alejandro Encinas already achieved quite a feat: To make Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas and Andrés Manuel López Obrador appear together on stage in his support, and as well Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard and, to add, PRD national president Jesús Zambrano, of the social democratic Nueva Izquierda faction long in confrontation with AMLO.

This truly is quite a feat - I cannot even remember when AMLO and Cárdenas shared a stage, let alone one where the main factions of the party appear together. Now will Encinas manage an upset win in the state as well? At the risk of getting carried away:  That scenario just became just a tad more possible, given this remarkable display of party unity.
