Venezuela, Chavez and the future of the Democratic Party

I'm cruising around today and have a post on Venezuela at the DetNews that's worth reading if you don't know the background on the current politics there, in the context of the Chavez' latest press conference where he expresses a desire to bring cheap fuel to America's poor people. He and Castro alsojointly offered free health care and free training for doctors.

I'm also engaged in a debate at Pennywit in the comment section about the future of the Democratic Party and the transformation of Kos. At the moment I'm the first comment and the last at around eighteen.
