    Another one gone due to his own greed!

    If Mami isn't careful she will be “ruling” on her own.

    That's what you get when you elect a rabid socialist.

    Her rating is about on a par with TMBOA: two old hags together then.

    Although I dislike the politics of the woman, she really does not deserve to be compaired to CFK. Mamie is small beer.

    I think most Chileans are pleased that we're exposing corruption on both sides.

    @2. What relevance do Chilean politics have? And about Chileans waking up to realize they live in a corrupt society with a housing bubble..way to go geniuses. What's anybody going to do about it? We can take a trip to uruguay and share stories about decency of institutions...but where is the energy imported from? CFK can crash Chile and did. Watch chilean stocks and the peso when CFK takes a bow if you don't believe me. Francisco hosting his favorite pro abortion leftist gay marriage fraud catholics just adds to the suspense. Allende goes and represents God knows what...Nice pics with the pope..does your coalition have an economic plan? no.

    Chile on the whole remains by far the least corrupt nation in Latin America. Our police is ranked only second to Canada for having the most honest in the Americas. Chile's bond rating is outstanding, our independent central bank is solid with one of most stable currencies in the Americas, Chile remains committed to budget surpluses and continues to pay into our emergency trust fund that currently exceeds 15B. Our armed forces are some of the best trained and equipped in Latin America. Chile's contribution of peace keeping solders for the UN are highly regarded worldwide.
    There is no housing bubble, just a sluggish market due to changes in the tax law by our president. If Brazil's or Argentina's economies crash, obviously it will affect Chile, but it won't kill us. Other than copper, our economy is well diversified and strong.
    All we need now is for the UDI and RN to get their political act together.
