AMLO like you ain't seen him yet

You may or may not know that AMLO is an avid baseball fan... and, as the picture from Milenio shows, he still plays the game when he can.

Greg for Senate? Maybe not such a great idea

Gregorio "Greg" Sánchez,  has not been convicted of any crime. Yet given the opposition from his own party against his candidacy - he is on both the Senate PR list, as well as the Senate district candidate - PRD should look again at this candidacy.

- His successor as mayor of Benito Júarez, Julián Ricalde Magaña, recently warned against his candidacy, saying that he could be barred from running - like he was when he ran for governor in 2010 (and spent months in prison).

- Now the Quintana Roo PRD branch threatens a boycott should he be a candidate.

It seems that this time the national PRD should listen to its state party branch. Greg really seems to come with far too much baggage.
