    In most developed countries a person in high office will resign his post if he/she thinks that they are going to bring the country in disrepute, unfortuneately this does not seem to happen in the third world. It must have someting to to with narcissism. Is there anyone in South America that is in public office that is not corrupt, and why are they not prosecuted? Are all the courts corrupt too?

    No, he is just a crooked businessman playing at being the V.P.

    We all know that this administration is addled with his sort from top to bottom and nothing will change as long as Peronism infests the country.

    While all these attacks on Boudou need to be taken with a pinch of salt as the kind of things the right opposition would say, I do think he wouldn't be the strongest K candidate for President, he was a banker and conservative in his youth, he may have genuinely had a change of heart post-crash but I can't rule out that he's an opportunist who's just joined the winning side. Timmerman would be a much better candidate, more consistent. And of course I'd back Cristinita if she runs again, but maybe Think is right about this... George Galloway is strongly hinting that he might run for Mayor of London, so maybe she could run for Mayor of Buenos Aires; imagine that, from Boris and Macri to George and Cristina, our two great capitals could finally have the leadership they deserve =)
