“Immigration emerged as a potentially hot issue in the Mexican presidential campaign Tuesday as candidates criticized President Vicente Fox for not protesting the U.S. decision to put National Guard troops on the border.

Fox can’t run for re-election but is supporting his conservative National Action Party’s candidate, Felipe Calderon, the president’s former energy minister.

Whether Fox’s caution before the Americans will hurt the front-runner Calderon politically is unclear, but analysts said opposition candidates seized on the Fox response to criticize the president and his party.”
