    LONGISH READ


    The PRI party held national power for 71 years.
    Now...after wandering among the cacti for 12 years...the PRI has a good shot at again running the DF...because of widespread citizen disgust over the uncontrolled violence and mayhem during the PAN's regime...and economic malaise.
    Led by a new, fresh face...Enrique Pena Nieto...the party must now confront the same old problems...congressional deadlock, small tax base and refusal to allow foreign investment and participation in fading oil giant PEMEX.
