Not surprisingly

Felipe Calderon is the president elect in Mexico. Not surprisingly, Mexico's highest courts ruled in his favor stating that he won fair and square. It is now up to him to bring together a very divided country, polarized by his opponents leftist tactics.

On a side note, its amazing that few US news networks picked up on this. Mexico's action is perhaps the most important news this year, especially for its largest trading partner to the north. In terms of economic impact, people and resources, we underestimate Mexico's importance.
