Look, Capriles is a scumbag, there's no question of that. Is it likely that he'll renege on his promises to keep Chavez's social programs in place and enact fully and uncompromisingly neoliberal policies? Yes. But when a the military starts to intervene after videos show government party workers doing suspicious things, and the "winner" starts to abuse his power to quell street demos, democracy must come first. Thankfully, it does look like there's a non-Chavismo left there, if a tiny one. Hopefully, if Maduro continues to be a clown throughout his presidency, people will start to turn to them. After Capriles cruises to a victory in 2018, hopefully we can see someone from a party like Avadanza Progresista, or the Movement for Socialism, the Radical Cause, or some alliance of them. I'm dreaming, I know.
Thanks for reminding those who are getting wet pants over Capriles (and I'm not thinking about rightist posters right now), what scum he really is.
I really hope Maduro and the military guys come to their senses.
