"You do not punish your political base"

You do if you are Kim Sung Il or Fidel Castro.

I don't mean to be smart-alecky. I like your article and am encouraged by it. I just wonder how much leverage based on free elections the Venezuelans have left?

If I am not mistaken the last election in Venezuela they had some serious problems. Many people against Chavez did not even go out and vote. Can't recall if it was out of protest or they just were intimated and did not vote.

Jimmah will be on the scene shortly to assure us all that Chavez is loved and is the "completly legitimate" Maximum Leader....for life....
