The Venezuelan electorate has chosen Hugo Chavez as their President for another six years. It was not even close. Mexican election was so close a few months ago that the Leftists are still rioting and exchanging fists in the Mexican Congress. That is not the case in Venezuela. With 71% of the vote reporting, Chavez has beaten Rosales 61% to 38%.
That kind of support is huge for Chavez. This is a mandate to continue with the Socialist/Marxist and anti-American agenda. Chavez is in a position to take the mantle from Castro who will more than likely pass away soon.
The difference between Cuba and Venezuela is resources. Cuba has maintained Marxism in poverty and military dictatorship. Venezuela has the full support of its people to bend toward Marxism and yet it is a rich oil Capitalist nation simultaneously.
