Very interesting because once going downhill in politics it is difficult to regain the lost ground. It may happen to individuals, but to political parties? Unless a savior arises from the ashes but he is nowhere to be seen among that pack of marshmallows. Even Cabello is a jellyfish. In 2002, although constitutionally the legal president he was running around town hidden in an ambulance. More recently he was also constitutionally president on the death of Chavez and let the opportunity slip by. <br /><br />By mentioning a constituent assembly, Capriles made quite a stir, just like sitting on a hornets nest. Darts are flying in all directions. No wonder the stick is now coming down hard on the opposition, Capriles broke a tabu. Old Poleo discusses this in this week Pendulo.<br /><br />Charlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-76991816703298154202013-08-09T21:35:41.743+02:002013-08-09T21:35:41.743+02:00Solly...... http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/frech...Solly...... http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/frech/k025.gifmargarethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-8252320236936059332013-08-09T20:44:39.075+02:002013-08-09T20:44:39.075+02:00ICIJ?

Now they do not need to worry about internal backlash because they can call a spade a spade, or rather, a corrupt, a corrupt."<br /><br />A caution for the opposition on this point. It may make the Chinese less willing to make future agreements but they have already invested in Maduro and will do anything, yes anything, to assure that those past contracts remain intact. The Chinese may very well want Capriles to be jailed and out of sight. China does not care about Venezuelan human rights. <br /><br />Would it be better to assure China that agreements will be reviewed carefully before being quashed?Ronaldonoreply@blogger.com
