Fox was supposedly a Conservative Party president ---but the Conservative (PAN) party is weak in Mexico and Fox isn't all that Conservative, the PRI and other Socialist Parties are quite a bit stronger ---and PRI controls the Mexican Congress and many of the states and cities. Drug cartels control most of the politicians in Mexico ---for a while I thought Fox was different but things seem to be worse than ever over there ---lately drug lords are executing each other's families right and left. Someone from Mexico today was telling me that Salinas de Gotari is back in Mexico and fully in support of Fox (I don't know if this is true or not). Salinas de Gotari was a former president of Mexico ---right before Zedillo and I think it was in Salinas de Gotari's election or during his term, that Colosio was murdered ---Colosio was a very popular presidential candidate and his death left his party in shambles which helped Fox win.
