| Sinaloa: Mexican Politicians Denounce Firebomb Attack |
| 2010-06-13 |
| babelfish, etc... Representatives of the three major political parties Saturday denounced the Molotov cocktail attack on a Partido Accion Nacional (PAN) headquarters building in the Mexican state of Sinaloa, say Mexican news accounts. The attack which took place Saturday morning before dawn caused minor damage. No one was hurt in the attack. Sinaloa is set to elect this summer a slate of state government leaders, 18 mayorships and the Legislature. The attack represents one in a "one long chain of (vandalistic) acts on this political institute, among them robbery and destruction of its campaign materials...", said Francisco Solano Urias, Sinaloa PAN leader. "This attack constitutes a very worrisome message on the violence level that can be presented/displayed in this electoral day', said Partido de la Revolucion Democrätica (PRD) leader for Sinaloa Ramon Lucas Lizärraga. President of the state committee of the Sinaloa Partido Institutional Revolucionario (PRI), Cenovio Ruiz Zazueta, has demanded the attack be investigated, stating that such attacks can cloud the electoral process. The resulting fire damaged the front door of the building. |

| #1 PAN had decades to plan its re-entry into Mexco's top political leadership. So far, not much in the way of results. With PRD being the road to an overreaching and unaffordable socialistic state, look for the old dinosaur party - the PRI - to return to prominence. (If Colosio had survived the assasination - PRI would still be in the driver's seat.) |
