@1. “Hope” won't get them anywhere. The situation is obvious. Scioli is incapable of running his own electoral campaign. After 10 December, if he wins, “his” office will feature the equipment for a constant “conference call” where TMBOA can tell him what to say and do. Probably another at his home and a permanently connected mobile. After all, he's only a stop gap until, she thinks, she gets back from her holiday.

“I believe they have a way of looking at world and regional affairs which is something different to what is sponsored by the current elected authorities”, s”

Could that way be possibly not using the Malvinas Myth every time something goes wrong in Argentina, and actually cooperating with other countries to get something achieved.?

When you have the likes of this going on there isn't much hope for the country.

“The mayor of Concepcion, an Argentine town in northern Tucuman province, says he is trapped in the town hall.”

What a dirty trick to plan hiring 500 people who possibly work one day and week whilst drawing a monthly salary.

No wonder they can spare all that time to protest

Why would we cooperate when other countries don't want to cooperate with us? When it comes to foreigners, it's their way or the highway. So we took the highway.

It's not rocket science.

Even Uruguay has come out publicly against CFK and her government's policies.
