MEXICO CITY - Mexico braced for further unrest after leftists protesting the disputed presidential election blocked the main boulevard in Mexico City on Monday, snarling rush-hour traffic in the center of the world's second-largest city.

Hundreds of camping tents filled Reforma Avenue, completely shutting down traffic to the country's financial district and museums, as supporters of presidential candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador pressed their demand for a recount of the July 2 election results.

The blockade affected eight miles of Reforma Avenue, a stretch that includes the U.S. Embassy, the Mexican stock market, Chapultepec Park, the National Anthropology Museum and other tourist attractions.

Yeah, bad news when democracy is upheld.

Losing Leftists always want ballots recounted until they win, for some reason.

[kkkron]

What's the point? It'll only be recounted by the same people, with the same result.

[DoctorDoom]

Think Florida 2000.

[kkkron]

I was 10. Remind me.

[DoctorDoom]

That explains a lot.

Yea just like Christina Gregoire did in the Washington State Govenor elections... successfully mind you.

[kkkron]

That explains a lot.

It does. I still don't remember Florida 2000.

The last thing in the world Mexico needs is another leftist regime -- one that is even further left than the one that ran it for 80 years. What it needs is the "conservative," pro-business party, but the left is doing everything it can to destabilize the government and cripple the new administration's ability to turn Mexico around. The longer it takes for Mexico to reform its way out of its economic debacle, the longer the U.S. will be burdened with the flood of illegal immigration. It’s a friggin’ disaster. Let’s understand leftists: it is not democracy they’re after, but absolute control. Leftist elites do not care about the people; they care about power. The more needy and dependent the people, the better.

[Trau]

What it needs is an honest government that is pro-people, left or right.

It figures!:flame: The Lefties lose and they can't accept the results so do whatever it takes to cheat and win.

Rink nailed it. Remember Gregoire in Washington? She won her election......4 recounts later, the first 3 still making her the loser!

Either way, Mexico will never change as millions will continue to flow into this country and be given everything they want.
