Calderón Not Open to 2012 Alliance

From Excélsior:
President Felipe Calderón said that he has a respectful relationship with the government of Mexico City, headed by Marcelo Ebrard, although he dismissed that this opens the possibility of a PAN-PRD alliance ahead of the federal electoral process of 2012 or of nominating the capital city governor.

"Definitely I don't see that. There has simply been a respectful relationship with the government of Mexico City despite the enormous political and ideological differences, but that in no way means that there could be an electoral alliance, that's something very different", he indicated in an interview on the radio with Oscar Mario Beteta.
Not a lot of wiggle room there.
