Good Observation

Courtesy of Boz:
As a side note, looking at polling in Brazil and Chile and the results from Mexico's recent legislative election results, one has to wonder if a new trend in Latin American politics is the death of presidential coattails.*
I'm not sure how much of a change this is (after all, Fox's 2003 mid-terms were comparably disastrous), but it certainly is striking.

*I'd thought that broad observations about Latin America's politics were legally required to address the relative strength or weakness of the pink tide, and nothing else; evidently not.
