Given the tremendous population of Mexico City, hundreds of thousands of people could show up in the Zócalo whether there's a political protest or not.
The size of the crowd isn't troubling, but the rhetoric about shutting the country down if the PRD candidate doesn't get his way, is very troubling.
Seems there's 'street' envy in Mexico. Having the 'arab street' rent-a-mobs causing trouble isn't enough, maybe we'll start seeing the 'mexican street' flex its muscle (and I suspect there is a 'rent-a-mob' aspect to some of the PRD folks in Mexico City, AMLO bought a lot of political patronage while mayor through various social programs).
Of course, they could have gotten well over a million folks in the Zócalo if Vicente Fernández had been giving a free concert.
