calderon said to be election winner

The MSM is reporting that Calderon has won the Mexican election. It will be interesting see what develops when Lopez Obrador supporters take to the streets. Obviously we must hope for non-violence, but at the same time it would seem that it's going to take near complete societal unrest to get Lopez Obrador the presidency. I believe he still has some legal avenues open to him, but I doubt they'll get anywhere. This is going to be one for the power of the people, it remains to be seen where that power will lead.
