++ From Michoacan to Nuevo Leon. Mexican Army soldiers arrested 27 municipal and state police officers in Nuevo León who are accused of links to organized crime.
++ Back to Michoacan…The Michoacán Congress will wait for the 40 days to be over of temporary detainment ordered for 30 state officials, amongst them 10 mayors, to decide whether the mayors should be removed from their jobs…
++ Who is scared of the big bad wolf? President Felipe Calderón threatened all public servants who betray Mexico by associating themselves with drug traffickers… He said they will be punished… Calderón said the power to corrupt on the part of narcos knows no party lines, nor government hierarchies…
++ Don’t you dare think that we hang out thugs and riff raff…PRD national leader PRD Jesús Ortega said his party will not tolerate any member of the party who is mixed up with criminal rings… He called on authorities to take a global approach to the problem, without using the issue as a way to earn votes in midterm elections…
++ Question: Is this really a good idea? Dismantling the Federal Preventive Police and creating the Federal Police officially became law after a decree was published in the Daily Journal of the Federation… The new force will follow orders from the Public Security Secretariat and will have jurisdiction to carry out detective work, to ask a judge to authorize telephone tapping and undercover operations.
++ The best fight in town! PAN vs. PAN….Former PAN president Manuel Espino called on current PAN leader Germán Martínez to cut down on the theatrics and center his campaign on the values, ideas and proposals that have always been at the heart of PAN’s platform.
++ Some good news…The Mexican Stock Exchange rose 3.18 percent, its highest level since October 1.
++ Candidates don´t care. We knew that! Coparmex president Ricardo González Sada reprimanded parties and their candidates for failing to pledge to approve structural reforms the country needs to reach 6-percent growth rates and create on average 1 million jobs per year.
