On Sunday, 12 Feb...one of 5 candidates...will be officially chosen to oppose President Hugo Chavez...in October.
But instead of USA-like vitriol...there is only support and harmony among the candidates.
After a decade of squabbling...the opposition has finally agreed to back one candidate...to insure the end of Hugo's 12 year reign of socialismo.
This time...Chavez seems especially vulnerable with popularity at only 50%...and shadowed by a still undisclosed cancer.
