The Venezuelan private media incited and mobilized the junta that kidnapped him before. I hope the same private media (that he allowed to remain) is not allowed to betray democracy again.

7. So , on election day, his opponent will surely claim victory

and the right wing papers here will proclaim a .05% victory and demand a recount or revote or revolution :)

[Grebrook]

8. Chavez is an unhinged nutjob who kisses up to Iran, hopefully his opponent is a moderate

and not really that right-wing. It's unfortunate they didn't have some sort of "socialist primary" where they could just Liebermanned his ass.

18. And a second welcome.

Missed the post count, since it is something I rarely check (since it usually doesn't mean much since anyone can go to the Lounge and rack up numbers). Although I do check it on occasion when there is some extremely stupid comment, and this was surely not one of those.
