Today's Sign that DF's Politics is Slightly Different than the Rest of Mexico's

Among the Workers Party's candidates for the legislative assembly in Mexico City is Lucía Morett, the 27-year-old activist who survived the Colombian attack on the FARC camp where Raúl Reyes' was staying last spring. Morett claimed to be in the FARC camp as part of an academic mission researching, among other things, guerillas and music. That episode and its aftermath, which didn't reflect particularly well on Morett, is essentially the only reason that Morett is in a position to run.

Spanish-speakers, check out past interviews with Morett.
