Threats

Before and during last Sunday's gubernatorial election in Guerrero, there were anonymous telephone calls to voters to stay home. Violence was in the making, they were threatened.

People went to vote and a political dynasty was weakened, the Huitzuco dynasty: the Figueroas.

Now a leftist politician will be the governor for five years.

Hosni Mubarak is threatening Egyptian demonstrators with thugs. They already hurt Anderson Cooper from CNN.

So it goes.

I predict that Mubarak will go nonetheless.
