Never interrupt your enemy while he's self destructing.
In an article titled, Uribe: Advisor to the Titanic, Rebelion. org writer Juan Manuel Karg noted that Uribes vocal support for the Capriles Radonski campaign comes at a time when the Governor of Miranda begins to lose out in public opinion, after a campaign launch that expected to be much closer (to Chavez) in the polls, and just months before the election. With opinion polls that place President Chavez between 20 and 30 points ahead of Capriles Radonski, Karg said, one can understand the necessity the MUD has, or that Capriles himself has, to get additional support from international advisors Kang also noted that public comments by Capriles Radonski distancing himself from Uribe are purely for show, and that as this years electoral contest approaches, there they will be, on the one side, beyond their cosmetic differences, Capriles Radonski, Uribe, and the international lobbyists that are still trying to prevent the sinking of the Titanic better known as the MUD; and on the other side, Chavez and the courageous Venezuelan people.

It appears that the original case is about a Uribe plot to oust President Santos

He's probably wild to keep Santos' government from succeeding in a Peace Agreement.
