President Mauricio Macri anticipated on Tuesday that investments in Argentina would multiply after what he predicted will be a triumph for his Let's Change Coalition in October's mid-term elections. While Macri said his allies would win “by a lot” nationwide, he admitted polls showed a tight race between his party's candidate and ex president Cristina Fernandez for a Senate seat in Buenos Aires province.

    How much candour. Macri says “vote for Cambiemos and all be all right.”
    Unfortunately, Macri has long overstayed his welcome. You can fool people only for so long.
    Today's Argentina is still functioning on the basis of huge foreign loans--money that keeps the lights on but does not increase the country's payment capacity.
    As a result, this is a party that is going to end with a bang.
    When that happens, there will only one option left.
    Sadly, reconstruction will be painful and laborious.
    However, Argentina can do it again.
    Cristina--the country needs you.

    Your are labouring under the delusion that CFK had a good track record on reconstruction.

    You appear to believe that thinks were fantastic and getting better under CFK but then took a turn for the worse under Macri. Are these beliefs based on any sort of reality or just clouded by your inexplicable love of CFK.

    I think the band on your hat is too tight.

    Zaphod: It does not really matter what I appear to believe.

    Just in case you haven't noticed, there is a thing called Argentine citizens. They are, in two days, take part in a preliminary election.

    It's them who make the decision--not me. You, as others in this forum, seem to believe that shooting the messenger will allow you guys to keep comforting each other in your little world. Rendez-vous here in a couple days.

    Reeko,

    “It does not really matter what I appear to believe.”

    That is true.

    “Just in case you haven't noticed, there is a thing called Argentine citizens. They are, in two days, take part in a preliminary election.”

    But CFK isn't!

    “It's them who make the decision--not me.”

    It seems that CFK has decided not to vote for herself! You couldn't make this up! :-D
