NYT's Damien Cave briefly profiles the 3 leading candidates running for president on 1 July...as the short 3 month window opens for electioneering.
Cave writes that they are called: 'The Pretty Boy' (Pena Nieto)...the 'Quinceanera Doll'
(Vasquez Mota)...and the 'Tired Has Been' (Lopez Obrador).
Here instead is a link to the WSJ's presidential campaign start coverage by D. Luhnow:

Because of a new stricter paywall...this blog no longer provides free links to the NYT.
Supposedly, there are ways around the wall...by entering the reporter's name in GOOGLE's News search.
Here is a link to a SHORTER...less gossipy...version of the NYT Batista story.
