Democracy Wins In Honduras

Following yesterday's successful elections in Honduras, Latin American specialist Mary O'Grady writes in the Wall Street Journal:
Unless something monumental happens in the Western Hemisphere in the next 31 days, the big regional story for 2009 will be how tiny Honduras managed to beat back the colonial aspirations of its most powerful neighbors and preserve its constitution. Yesterday's elections for president and Congress, held as scheduled and without incident, were the crowning achievement of that struggle.
