Probably printing money as we speak.
CFK won a huge sympathy vote in 2011 with the death of Nestor, she won't have that this time so it looks like defeat in the October primaries & the end of Kirchnerismo in 2015!!!

Aug 06th, 2013 - 08:08 am - Link - Report abuse 0There is too much bad bad bad stuff coming for Arg for her to keep it all together. Especially if she is seen as weak.
The corruptions scandals alone are enough to sink her, her whole crew and FatMax.
CFK is indeed worried about her future. She is throwing a lot of money at this campaign. Three La Campora units have sprung up near me (within 5 blocks,) in the last eight months. That doesn't include the pueblo Peronista unit (UB?) on my street (established 9 months ago,) which hands out leaflets everyday, all day, occasionally blaring out nationalistic music.
