You do know this guy's history I'm sure, and for the sake of the people of Venezuela, I would not wish a far right winger on them or anyone else. When did democrats begin rooting for the far right in Venezuela btw, I was trying to remember exactly when it began and the closest I came was around 2004. According to revelations, some from Wikileaks, a lot of money has been poured into getting that support here, for what reason since it's no one's business here who those people elect, you have to wonder about.
What I hope is that if Chavez loses, Venezuela gets the equivalent of a good, progressive democrat here, rather than the equivalent of a corrupt, far right tea-bagger type who would plunge their country back to where it was before Chavez was elected and spent his time improving the conditions of the poor.
