Mexico left-wing candidate demands recount of each vote-BBC

In other news, gravity keeps things from floating away...

[CyberAnt]

And .. according to Mexican law .. it appears that a "recount" is automatic if the winning percentage is 1% or less - which it was purported to be.

So .. just like the dems, this guy is squealing like a stuck pig when it wasn't even necessary.

[rovenstinez]

Sore/Loserman didn't have 20 million angry people who would feel streets, scream, act angry and riot.

[SierraWasp]

Aw Shoot! I meant to format those datelines!! I'll bet Jimmy Carter's involved in this, along with Jesse Jackson, and all the other poverty pimps and all the Latino CA politicians that front for Mexifornia take-over groups!!!

It's a danged "Full Court Press!" The leftists are desperate!!!

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Just like our left-wingers. They should head for the jungles of Borneo and start their own country.

[ilgipper]

The Gore precident. The damage that jack-a$$ did to US and world politics will be felt for the rest of our lives. When the US Presidential election was allowed to turn into a circus side show, every state, local, and foreign election won by the right will forever follow suit.

[alloysteel]

Taking a page from the 2000 Gore playbook, demand recounts over and over again, still hoping for a different outcome.

Sorry, Lopez-Obrador. Your margin of victory has already fled from Mexico, and perhaps shall NEVER return.

[Dog Gone]

This could become a very interesting week in Mexico.

I have very little faith in the people running the election because the government doesn't run anything else without corruption. I can't imagine election results are an exception.

But I do have to say that it's remarkable that the PRI candidate finished so poorly that he's not even a factor in the upcoming election turmoil.

Mexico has become as polarized as the US. Conservatives vs. hard leftists. Moderate leftists are becoming irrelevant.

[FairOpinion]

They learend from Gore, count and recount, until they win.

[Bangupjob]

He's gonna go out like Bore, everyone laughing at him as long as he lives.

[martin_fierro]

Obrador?

ObraGORE!

[Vince Ferrer]

Considering that there are billions of dollars at stake for the future president, this will probably be a long, hard fight.

[llevrok]

Sounds like Jimmuh Cartuh is down there, monitoring the election

[Brilliant]

The libs really are bad sports. They don't respect the democratic process.

[nygoose]

I have very little faith in the people running the election because the government doesn't run anything else without corruption.

You precisely defined my feelings about our government.

[NapkinUser]

Bev Harris just ten dollars....

[Right Wing Assault]

Sounds like Jimmuh Cartuh is down there, monitoring the election

Probably advising Obrador how to drag things out.

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

You sir, are a geeneous.


;-)

[proud_yank]

You have to keep in mind that liberals don't actually 'lose' elections. Elections are often 'stolen' from liberals, but they are always 'entitled' to that victory. Liberalism is the mainstream, or the norm. Just some things to keep in mind.

Algore Network News

There, better.

[SierraWasp]

No wonder them third whirled cuntries always have such pist-off people!!! I'd be upset too, if I had to "feel" streets to register my discontent!!! (sorry, I just couldn't resist)

[fieldmarshaldj]

Not necessarily. The Mexicans that did vote here apparently gave a decent majority to Calderon.

[aft_lizard]

Hate to be the voice of common sense but in reality a assasination of Obrador would probably be incredibly bad, probably weeks and months of riots and stuff, in the end the US and Calderon and his party would take the greatest brunt.

[SierraWasp]

"BBC"

I always thought that stood for: Blinding Blizzard of Commonism!!!

[Paloma_55]

I wonder if that is going to be business as usual from now on. When a conservative wins by a narrow margin, the liberal automatically challenges the result and threatens to raise social tensions to the point of violence?

[SierraWasp]

Yeah! You're absolutely right!! Look at how much has been wasted on new and mostly unused electronic voting equipment, just for one small thing coming out of the fiasco he created!!!

[Paloma_55]

The real irony is that 12 million socialist liberals are probably here in the USA that *could* have voted for the guy.

[shield]

Just typical of the commie libs. He can scream as long and as loud as he wants to. Will not change the fact HE LOST, and WILL NOT BE the next president of Mexico. LOL

[SierraWasp]

"Your margin of victory has already fled from Mexico"

And is now escounced in luxury in the USA!!!

[Savage Beast]

Obrador's supporters plan to recount the votes themselves and determine the intention of each voter--nevermind whatever the ballot says. (To the Left, intentions are the only things that matter.) If their recount fails, they intend to declare Calderon's election illegitimate anyway and to set up a shadow government to snipe at and saboutage the Calderon government in every possible way. Meanwhile, Obrador intends to make a movie. He's thinking about an up-dated version of Chicken Little.

[SierraWasp]

Do ya spose that little tin-horned prig from Venesuela is involved with this? I sure wouldn't be surprised!!!

[SierraWasp]

"Moderate leftists are becoming irrelevant"

As are moderate conservatives in this country!!!

[BoBToMatoE]

Gee, where have we heard this before? Fox was reporting that the candidate might demand protest in the streets if he is not installed as president.

Typical. If they dont win, its slash and burn.

[SierraWasp]

Anymore I just hate it when I agree with you! Ha ha Ha!!!

[FierceDraka]

Do the results of the Mexican election really matter to us gringos?

I had high hopes for Mexico when former Coca Cola executive Fox was elected, but it only meant more of the same failed-state policies of the past.

Seems to me that no matter who is wearing the sash of El Presidente down there, Mexico will still be a corrupt, mismanaged basket case of a nation that continues to actively "encourage" its surplus population to invade our country.

[Brian Allen]

<< Sore/Loserman didn't have 20 million angry people who would feel streets, scream, act angry and riot. >>

You are kidding, of course.

But only about the numbers.

[SierraWasp]

Oh! Please don't make myrters out of these meaningless little prigs!! Don't elevate them or their cause with an attempt on their lives!!!

Plus it brings us down to their third whirled country level and wipes out any moral authority we have left. I'm sure you were only kidding, right?

[fantom]

Many are involved. Calling the near winner the conservative is a joke. This is the guy Dick morris worked for. I am sure many others who will go unnamed. I hope the Commie wins. He said his first act would be to close the border.

[SierraWasp]

You think our government is as corrupt and crooked as Mexico's? Not quite, there New York Goosed!!!

[AmishDude]

Now just imagine how little local fraud could change this national race and just imagine if we eliminated the electoral college.

[SierraWasp]

Yes! The stock market in Mexico rallied "BIGTIME" (to quote Dick Cheney) in anticipation of Phillipe being the more right wing winner in the image of Fox, sorta.

[SierraWasp]

Is that screen name autobiographical??? (grin)

[SkyPilot]

"Every El Voto, uhhhh... musto El Counto! Necesito un trabajo!!! Si say Puedo something...errr....Mi criada es atractiva....."

[SierraWasp]

Boy, now there's one of them pictures worth 100,000,000 words. Lookit that large mouthed Basstird!!!

I love your captioning, too!!!

[river rat]

Who would have guessed...

The leftists in Mexico will have a AlGorgasm!

It will interesting to see if the leftist Mexicans attempt to select only the most leftist neighborhoods to "recount".
The DNC, Communists, Marxist and Lunatic Muslims seem to be allied in every regard....

Semper Fi

[livius]

. The damage that jack-a$$ [Gore] did to US and world politics will be felt for the rest of our lives

You are absolutely, completely 100% right. Hope Al Baby is proud.

[muleskinner]

Afraid so. The Gore Effect should only last 20-30 years, that's the "inconvienient truth".

[SierraWasp]

"Obrador intends to make a movie"

Maybe he could just contract that out to Michael Moore, just to continue your parallel scenario to the 2000 Bush victory and the leftist frenzy ever since!!!
