按：时代杂志今年在世界提名了40个人作为2012年时代杂志人物候选人，中国有三人：习近平，艾未未，薄熙来。在对薄熙来的简介中可看出，实际上美国人认为，薄被打倒的原因是因为薄挑战了中共党内升官的方式，而引起对手愤怒。What do you think?你怎麽看？

Should Bo Xilai be TIME's Person of the Year 2012?薄熙来应该是2012年时代杂志的人物吗？

DefinitelyNo Way

Bo Xilai, 63, the former Communist Party boss of the Chinesemegacity of Chongqing, was a rising political star until a deputy fled to aU.S. consulate, setting off a scandal that revealed corruption, abuse of powerand the murder of a British businessman by Bo's wife. Bo was favored to win aseat on China's all-powerful Politburo Standing Committee this fall afterhaving boosted his popularity by reviving Mao-era culture, expanding socialsafety nets and pushing an aggressive and sometimes brutal crackdown on organizedcrime. But his flashy initiatives angered rivals in China's buttoned-downCommunist Party. He now awaits trial on multiple criminal charges, and a longprison term is expected.

薄熙來，63歲，前共產黨的中國大城市重慶的老闆，是一個不斷上升的政治明星，直到其副手逃亡到美國領事館，由此掀起了他的醜聞，被揭示腐敗，濫用權力和謀殺的英國商人博的妻子。在他恢復毛澤東時代的文化，擴大社會安全網和推動一個積極的，有時殘酷的打擊有組織犯罪，提高了他的人气後，薄被看好在今年秋天可在中國的全功能強大的中央政治局常委贏得一個席位。但是，他高调的舉措激怒了在中國的搞定式共產党内的對手。他目前正在等待一个多项刑事指控的審判，並預計長期徒刑。
