Venezuela: Where's the Capriles Excitement?

Categories: Latin America, Venezuela, Elections, Politics

[…] from what little I have seen in two days in Venezuela, the excitement is greater on the side supporting incumbent President Hugo Chávez, rather than challenger Governor Henrique Capriles. That is exactly the opposite of what I’ve read on most of my favourite English language websites about the country, but it’s the truth.

Steven Bodzin writes in his blog Setty's Notebook [1].

Blogger Juan Cristóbal Nagel [2] from Caracas Chronicles reacts to Steven's post: “Let’s keep it real: Chávez is the favorite [3], but Capriles has momentum [4], as most polls show.”
