I have to give them AP boys some credit in this story. See if you can figure out what is so amazing in their use of the English language.
Mexico's Calderon Has Insurmountable Lead.
MEXICO CITY -- Ruling party candidate Felipe Calderon built an insurmountable lead in Mexico's presidential vote count Thursday, but his leftist rival vowed to challenge the results in court. With 99.59 percent of the vote counted, Felipe Calderon would win even if all the remaining votes went to Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of the Democratic Revolution Party. He had 35.83 percent of the vote, compared with 35.36 percent for Lopez Obrador.
There! Right there! Did you see it?
...his leftist rival.. right there in the first paragraph. Not 'reform' or 'progressive' rival, but them boys at the AP actually called it like it really is. Amazing!
Now, if they can just bring themselves to say 'socialist'.....
