I know nothing about Mexican politics, but it seems like every Mexican with internet access hates this guy...

Some things I've read about him (which may or may not be true)

Couldn't remember his wife's cause of death.
Couldn't name 3 good books he'd read.
Admitted to cheating on his first wife and having 2 children with another woman.
His daughter accused his critics of being "Proletariat assholes" on twitter.
Only speaks Spanish.
When asked about the price of tortillas, he didn't know, stating "I'm not the housewife".
When asked about the current minimum wage, he was wrong by over a factor of 10.
Accused of buying votes, rigging elections.
Accused of killing his wife.

The new president of Mexico!
Enrique Peña Nieto represents the centrist and famously corrupt PRI (Institutional Revolutionary Party), which long dominated Mexico as a one-party state. Wiki says:
From 1929 to 1982, the PRI won every presidential election by well over 70 percent of the vote—margins that were usually obtained by massive electoral fraud. Toward the end of his term, the incumbent president in consultation with party leaders, selected the PRI's candidate in the next election in a procedure known as "the tap of the finger" (Spanish: el dedazo). In essence, given the PRI's overwhelming dominance, the president chose his successor. The PRI's dominance was near-absolute at all other levels as well. It held an overwhelming majority in the Chamber of Deputies, as well as every seat in the Senate and every state governorship.
Now they are back in power. This is not going to end well.

How much different is this from any republican senator?
(except killing his wife, of course, which might not be untrue in the case of Gingrich...)
