AP: "...Henrique Capriles (above) has asserted himself as a sort of anti-Chavez: a soft-spoken state governor who tries to avoid confrontation and describes himself as middle-of-the-road in contrast to the socialist president."
"... Capriles, 39, is leading in the polls in an increasingly crowded field of contenders who will compete in a February primary to choose a single anti-Chavez presidential candidate. He is also the first politician in years to roughly match Chavez in support, according to some recent polls."
