The leftist mind is no different whether its synapses fire in Spanish or in English? To the leftist, defeat is inconceivable…and if by some misalignment of the planets, they lose it is a result of chicanery and fraud, not a lack of appeal.

That was the message of Al Gore after his electoral defeat in 2000 and it is the message of Lopez Obrador in Mexico today. The premise that a leftist could actually lose a democratic election is laughable to the leftist mind. Just as it is laughable that the wealthy are well off because of hard work, rather than luck.

Given this mental block that most leftists have, they frequently turn to the same tactic: the voice of mob. A strategy which relies of shouting down an opponent. Today in Mexico, thousands of leftists have converged upon the ruins of Tecnochtitlan, to call for the installation of Lopez Obrador as the next president of Mexico.

The mob in Mexico is using lies and untruths to taint the success of their main conservative rival, just as the left has down in this country. The first casualty in this strategy is the truth.

As we have heard from the UN and EU election observers, the Mexican elections were fair and transparent, nonetheless the left charges fraud and in the spirit of Al Gore and the Nazis before him, they believe that if you shout these accusations loud enough they will be embraced as truth, thus even if the conservative candidate holds on to his victory, he will be forever tainted and regarded as illegitimate, further limiting his influence.

To some exist this strategy has proven quite successful in the US and in other places where it has been tried, ensuring the left will continue to follow the Gore De-legitimization Endgame (GDE) model for the foreseeable future.
