Ojo, when I mentioned my concern over his marianismo, I was referring to the type tomado muy a pecho. And I've seen that at different times of my life, in different locations, among one or many. To pretend that zealots do not exist, in any religion, goes to a certain delusion. To build a fortress against discussions of this type goes to defensiveness.sydnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-43400106619989661692012-02-10T21:36:16.679+01:002012-02-10T21:36:16.679+01:00i dunno no nobody from maracucholand. but i heard...i dunno no nobody from maracucholand. but i heard they get glazed eyes and clouded minds "cuando van cruzar el puente"Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12128609182544333477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-61128496754431745412012-02-10T21:33:42.229+01:002012-02-10T21:33:42.229+01:00Yeah, nothing scarier than believing in La Divina ...Yeah, nothing scarier than believing in La Divina Pastora.

The Capriles came to America via the Netherlands (names ending in -es are often of Sefardi origin, while the -ez finish is not). They have been Christian for a few generations already. But Radonski is a more recent conversion.

He's a survivor after all. I personally believe that he is an egotistical I-told-you-so I-always-know-best kind of guy. Given that he has not that big of an impact out there, I don't see how anyone - i.e. P.P. - can benefit from that.<br /><br />I see this poll under the same light as the other polls out there. At most, it paints the best case scenario for PP. Time will tell if he's right or not.A.

Chavez has been waiting for a slip, for the confrontation between candidates to highlight it, but they haven't given him the chance, and that has been a very good thing.<br /><br />Whoever wins will need the support of the others, but I believe this is something they already know.<br /><br />I also believe that Capriles, if he wins, might change the tone and charge more frontally against the government.
