Well, it appears that I was wrong....Mr. Chavez just lost a refrendum in Venezuela regarding some proposed constitutional changes. And, he accepted defeat. I admit I was surprised. He will be in office for five more years and will probably figure out a way to push on with his "Bolivarian" revolution. But, at least, a semblance of Democracy was preserved in Venezuela. I still can't believe he lost, although I did clap in joy when I heard he lost. I wish, though, that Chavez Friend Mahmoud Ahmadinejad also learns in adhering to true popular will. But, that is for another day. Let's savour this one, though.
