#2 Upon Chavez's death, the opposition would contest the government's candidate in a snap election that it argues should have been called after Chavez was unable to be sworn in on Jan. 10 as the constitution stipulates.

RNC, jot down this so-called "opposition tactic". It could come in handy some day.

#7 Random JD, you took the words right out of my mouth.

Poor Hugo is dead, He looking all so peaceful and serene, it's a shame that he won't keep, it looks like he's asleep but its summer and we're almost out of ice.

Venezuela accuses enemies of poisoning ailing Chavez
Venezuela accused the domestic and foreign enemies of Venezuela of poisoning ailing President Hugo Chavez and expelled a U.S. Embassy attache who was seeking military support for a plot against the government, Vice President Nicolas Maduro said Tuesday.

Maduro made the remark to reporters after he met with the country's top officials Tuesday about Chavez's worsening health condition.

Some day, he told the press in a lengthy statement, there will be "scientific proof" that Chavez, fighting a battle with cancer, was poisoned. He also called Venezuela's right-wing forces an "oligarchy" and an "enemy of the nation."
