I THINK MUCH OF THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE COMING ELECTION, AND MAKING CHAVEZ LOOK GOOD. AT LEAST THE LACK OF CLARIFICATION FITS, AS THE MORE DOUBT AND THE MORE RUMOURS THAT CHAVEZ IS TAKING BACK LC, AND ALIGNINGING IT WITH A SOCIALIST COUNTRY, WILL HELP IN THE COMING ELECTIONS.

I DON'T THINK THAT THERE IS MUCH THOUGHT ABOUT KRY AT THIS TIME, ESPECIALY AMONST THE LOWER LEVEL POLICALO'S AND THOSE RUNNING FOR OFFICE. THEY JUST WANT VOTES, AND MAKING KRY LOOK BAD HELPS. EVERYTHING COULD VERY WELL CHANGE AFTER THE ELECTION, AS THINGS MOSTLY HAVE CHANGED AFTER ALL THE RUMOURS.
