		<description><![CDATA[WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama&#8217;s health care initiative is repeating history. No, not the failed attempt by President Bill Clinton in 1993. Right now, Obama&#8217;s troubled plan is on the same shaky ground that preceded President George W. Bush&#8217; grand flop with Social Security.

		<description><![CDATA[MEXICO CITY — Reviled as a creaky remnant of Mexico&#8217;s authoritarian past, the old Institutional Revolutionary Party made a big comeback in midterm elections, once again becoming the largest force in Congress.
