First Mexico State gubernatorial debate, available here on youtube

First Mexico State gubernatorial debate, led by Denise Maerker, available in complete form here on youtube

Phrase of the day, following Edomex debate

Attention has earlier been raised toward the ridiculous practice, in Mexcio State now taking to the very extreme, of notarized "promises" made by a candidate ahead of an election.

In the first debate held by the three Mexico State candidates, where reportedly PRD candidate Alejandro Encinas came out on top,  PAN candidate Luis Felipe Bravo Mena had the best characterization of the 6,000 compromisos practice:  "A diarrhea of promises."

Indeed.
