THERE IS something rotten in Mexico. And it smells like Florida. The ruling party, the Washington-friendly National Action Party (Pan), proclaimed its victory in the presidential race, albeit tortilla thin, was Mexico's first "clean" election.

And indeed, evidence suggests that Team Bush had a hand in what may be another presidential election heist.
