It is very possible that the military boyz are part of the PRI dinosaurs... so making hell for Fox is the sport of the moment...
Who knows what goes on in there, they are so corrupt that whoever is in power will do the impossible to get his way regardless of the consequences present or future...
Did you ever read the book by Andrés Oppenheimer? (I think I mentioned it already)
México, en la frontera del Caos.
There is an English version too...
Bordering on Chaos
Mexico's growing pains in the era of NAFTA and globalization have been singularly acute and dramatic: a guerrilla uprising, the assassination of political leaders, revelations of high-level corruption, economic collapse, and a $50 billion bailout. Bordering on Chaos is an unrivaled account of the headline-making events that have threatened Mexico's social, political, and economic stability. It is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand Mexico today-when, more than ever before, what happens in Mexico directly affects the U.S. national interest.

Amazingly, Oppenhemer, (an Argentinean) captured well all the ins & outs of Mexican politics. He also interviewed comandante Marcos... an interesting book for those who are familiar with politics south of the border and an eye opener for those who are not.
As for expectations... well, I think that it will be a long process, but they have started. After all, living under the PRI Monarchy for 71 years created a mindset which will have to be eliminated and they have to realize that Papá Gobierno is not the fix for every ill in the horizon. |
