Will democracy lose in Mexico?

As I've said in the past, "In a well-functioning democracy, those who deserve the congratulations are not the winners, but the losers who give up power." That's why I'm so worried about Mauel Lopez Obrador refusing to give up in the Mexican election. He refuses to concede victory to Felipe Calderon who beat him by 0,57%. He wants to contest the irregularities. Sure, it's tight. But in a country where democracy hasn't quite settled, every politician should contribute to its reinforcement. Much worst than 6 years of your opponent in power is the loss of democracy. International observers have said that the election was fair. Let's move on.

Obrador says that the "country's stability is at stake". He should hear his own words and accept defeat.
