Colombian Senator Piedad Cordoba's relation with Venezuela president Hugo Chavez may be the reason she didn't win this year's Nobel Peace Prize, opines Adam Isacson of the Center for International Policy.
"Poor Piedad. She has to wait for one year more. If she had won, the good thing would have been that it would have been a signal to president Uribe to change his politics, he states, "but the closeness to Chávez was a bad thing."
