    The balance of the polling clearly supports what Chavez said, he is not going to lose the vote

    “Chavez said, he is not going to lose the vote” and he was going to what ever it takes to win.

    @2 When government “supporters” start killing supporters of the opposition isn't it a clear signal that “whatever it takes” has already started? And in Chavez' “home” state? Gunmen in a van? Power at any cost?

    Chavez will win this election one way or another - but I very much doubt he'll live long enough to see through a full term.

    @4 You're trying to cheer us up, aren't you? Do you think it possible that CFK could be, literally, sacrificed on his funeral pyre?

    @5 Conqueror

    I would pay good money to see the pair of them disposed of like that.

    Not to want to be too bloody, but could we hang, draw and quarter them first?

    Let's see what the argies make of that! :o)

    Go Capriles, i have faith in this guy.
    Time to put an end to that regine.

    You know what boils my blood, the fact that over a hundred if not thousands of ''MiliTONTOS, La Campora'' are going to Venezuela on Wednesday to support Chavez.

    I hope the engines fail so at least we get rid of a fraction of that piece of shit group of brainwashed pricks.
