I think it’s going well. We are 7 weeks away from the election and I feel that everyday the world is more convinced that the elections are the way to end the political crisis. I also feel that everyday the rest of the world is gradually understanding what really happened, and the world is gradually ignoring Zelaya. These are all good signs.
But, on the other hand, I still feel that Chavez is planning something, some last minute offensive just a few days before the elections to try to convince the world not to recognize the elections. Maybe even kill Zelaya to make him a martir and pay mobs to cause caos.
An interesting fact that nobody has mentioned is that there have been very few deaths during this political crisis. This is proof that Zelaya’s mobs are paid to protest. If they would really believe in their cause there would be thousands of deaths by now.
Would be fitting for someone, anyone to snuff Mel, right after the election, just to show Hugo and nobama.
In another 7 weeks the Brazilians will zap him for screwing up a nice quiet deal they had working at the Embassy.
Over-reaching is usually the downfall of dictators. And this may apply to Hugo Chavez AND Barack Obama.
Whatever happens, Latin Americans will take note and make adjustments accordingly.
I’m surprised Chavez hasn’t created an armed insurgency inside Honduras based out of Nicaragua. This possibility has worried me ever since Zelaya created the constitutional crisis. It may be that—as you say—it is too difficult for the marxists to find native Hondurans of like mind. And such a scheme might easily be traced back to Chavez.
