Sadly Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, great campaign, offering everything to the poor just for the votes, he can not keep its promises

Ecuador and they are a team I won't bet for, even with fake money.\n\nBut they are a good team to bet against, I took Mexico to beat them last time out and they obliged despite taking the lead. \n\nMexico enjoyed nearly 70% of the possesion in that match but won only 2-1.

I think that because of the team it has, Brazil is one of the strongest candidates to win the world cup. However, the Czech Republic showed to be very strong and firm (even though they defeated the US... I am so disappointed) as well as Spain was the bomb today.  I don't think that Mexico will win. Reason being, they show strength when they play against Central American countries, but when they face a strong team, bye bye.  I would like a unusual team to win the world cup, for example the Czech Republic, Netherlands, even an African country... that would be a surprise, but oh well, let's just wait.

Mexico's group also has Iran, and a Czech team which should be considered a possible winner (along with Germany & Brazil).  Only 2 of 3 will go to the second round.  Mexico will be an underdog against Czech, and will have to beat Iran to advance.  That is not an easy thing to do.\n\nWhether Mexico finishes 1st or 2nd in their group, it doesn't look good.  They would meet Argentina or Holland in the round of 16.  Mexico would be a BIG underdog to both of those teams.\n\nI would pick Mexico to barely get to the "sweet 16", but not the quarter-finals.

I believe the better choice is Felipe Calderon, jut because i have tryed to listen to all of them - not only the spots, but what they have said in the proposals - and i find that Felipe Calderon is the one who has a better idea of the whole problem of Mexico.\nHe have talked with ideas about all of the problems in Mexico, since the economics, the exterior relations, the gobernability, and the work with all of the actors of the society. \nI see his team in this campaign, and i think they are people who are prepared, intelligent, that have done their own work to be there, and that understands all what they are talking about, and that allows us to know, they don't try to full us with magic, they put the things as they are, with a realistic point of view, and with realistic proposals to make things better.\nI don't believe in the Andres Lopez Obrador, since i don't understand how he is going to acomplish what he is saying he will do, and because the team that is helping him i don't feel is reliable. All the dinosaurs of the PRI are with him, and they are an important part of his team.\n\nhttp://www.sociedadenmovimiento.org.mx/respuestas/FC18.html

I think if they play against Holland, they might have a chance. If it's Argentina, Mexico will be abused.

Hillary Clinton, if the Democrats want to lose again.  Middle America is not ready for a socialist (it takes a village to raise a child), bi-sexual (that's how they'll potray her) woman as a president.  And no matter how you slice or dice it, Middle America still makes the decisions that matter in this country.  Too bad Bill couldn't run again, he'd be a shoe in.\n\nJohn Kerry is ramping up to be the nominee again and as long as he can keep his big stupid mouth shut he'll win.

I do.  I hope Lopez Obrador wins. \n\nOaxaca, where teachers have camped in a tent city during a yearlong campaign for pay increases. The armed forces recently tried to dislodge the protestors, using gas from helicopters, and the resistance broadened to 70,000 in the colonial town square. Talks through a federal mediator have broken down and the standoff continues. Lopez Obrador supports the teachers. \n\nI pray he wins!

I have to disagree, the Mexican Team does not have what it takes (technique, mental game) to compete with Argentina. \n\nPortugal may give a surprise to Holland, but my best guess is that Argentina and Holland will cruise to the next stage.

I don´t know very much about the election, but for I have heard I think Mexicans have to choose Felipe Calderon. He is of the same political party that Vicente Fox, and I think that if they choose him, Mexico will keep the same economical and social way, and that´s good.\n\nAndres Manuel Lopez Obrador, is a nacionalist man, and I think he will stop the social and economical refroms in Mexico, and it would be bad for Mexicans. He is like Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero in Spain.

I am not all too familiar with Mexican candidates, but Lopez Obrador seems like the best choice to me.\nMexico has had enough of free market policies and neo-liberalism already, NAFTA has destroyed and ruined Mexican farmers and small industrialists and is replacing mexican native factories with sweatshops of multinational companies.\n\nThe place of Mexico belongs with the rest of Latin America, specially now that the trade blocks of MERCOSUR and the Hugo Chavez's ALBA (Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas) are consolidating in South America to defy the US-backed "Washington Consensus".\nWe are witnessing the terrible poverty, de-industrialization and social inequality brought by so-called "free" market, and we have had enough of it.\n\nThe best option for Mexico, I think, lies in the Zapatistas  and like-minded groups, but they have little chance of winning the elections (besides, the EZLN is not even participating). Therefore, to avoid the corporate-lobbist, oligarchic, FTTA-backer Vicente Fox, Obrador seems like the best choice to me. \nSaludos desde Argentina.\n\n\nEDIT: Yes, NAFTA has created more commerce. But has that served to improve the well-being of ordinary mexicans? Last time I checked, social inequality in mexico was actually increasing, not decreasing.\nBesides, I'd rather have proper employment and industrialization, and not sweathops. I do not consider sweatshops a "step" in comparison to the previous situation...but maybe that's just me, right?

First of all, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is a candidate from a party that has never won a presidential election. As we know the PRI party had ruled Mexico for 70 years straight, which was before Vicente Fox took office. The PRI party has proved itself that it should not govern Mexico ever again. The PAN party is now the party in power. I believe that if it wins this 2006 election, it can become another PRI stlye of government. I believe that if Lopez Obrador wins, Mexico will be much better. The PAN candidate will be the same as Vicente Fox. Mexico needs a different type of president, a president that opposes his own government, which has gave most of its people misery for a long time. Mexico needs a new type of president that will work for the people and in this case, Obrador has proved himself as the right man to this. I believe that Obrador will win the Mexican election, and he will do more for the country than what the other candidates would do if they get to the presidency.
