Calderon is hardly a "conservative" the way we think of conservatives.

Considering that Calderon promises a continuity of Fox's government, and considering Fox's policy was/is to send his social problems north, my guess would be that Calderon would be the worst in the illegal immigration regard.

"Calderon is hardly a "conservative" the way we think of conservatives."

Maybe so, but Lopez Obrador is a Communist in just the way we think of Communists.

One has to wonder why we back democratic reform in foreign lands, and support candidates that would help America... but when it comes to Mexico, we let the corrupt leftists have it without any challenge?

could show on Sunday that, while unfashionable, U.S.-style conservatives can still win hearts and minds.

So, according to Reuters, we're "unfashionable."
