As thick-skinned elected officials go, FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter is right up there with Bill Clinton. The chief of the Zurich-based group that oversees World Cup soccer hasn’t been accused of groping any interns, but that’s about all he hasn’t been accused of. Vote buying, mismanagement, cronyism -- and that’s just for starters. Yet the 66- year-old Swiss shows no sign of abandoning his campaign for a second four-year term.
Blatter, a geek of dispensing FIFA’S hundreds of million in annual revenue to inspire loyalty, even stands a good chance of reelection. At least he did. Since mid-March, he has seen a credible challenger emerge in Issa Hayatou, president of the African Football Confederation. Hayatou, a 55-year-old from Cameroon, leads a group of FIFA reformers that also includes FIFA Vice-President Lennart Johansson, a Swede who lost the presidential election Blatter in 1998. These contenders’ mission: t
A. identical.
B. complementary.
C. opposite.
D. similar.
