In from the cold in El Salvador

El Salvador ex-guerrilla in poll bid

Mr Sanchez Ceren, 69, was a Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front (FMLN) commander during El Salvador's bloody civil war, which went on from 1980 to 1992.

And I would vote for him, though I was not on his side, back in the day.

Quite a continuing parade of ex-reds, these days, into the democratic left.

Very satisfying.
