Watching this from Panama has been interesting, 1500 Venezuelans a day have been landing here with few catching their return flights. I think Chavez has several more years in office to achieve his goals of staying in office. Worst case he can so a Putin and move from the soapbox into the role of pulling the strings. Nothing new here except that unlike some recent elections in "the land of the free" the electorate has apparently spoken without Diebold's help.
