The ironies of the Venezuelan opposition, part
8<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/03/the-ironies-of-the-venezuelan-opposition-part-8.html>March
25, 2013 — Sabina Becker

Journalist Earle Herrera, host of VTV’s *Kiosco Veraz* (Truth Kiosk), devotes
the latest edition of his
show<http://www.aporrea.org/oposicion/n225590.html> to
a strange phenomenon:

One would think that since they have just three more weeks to go before the
next federal elections, the opposition’s dedicated news media would have
their boy front and centre, dancing the hokey-pokey. But no! No sign of him
anywhere. They have the new pope; they have Henry Falcón, the ex-Chavista *chef
de mission* of the opposition campaign whom we met a few entries
ago<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/03/the-ironies-of-the-venezuelan-opposition-part.html>,
off-gassing about the country being in “chaos” (when, in fact, it’s quite
calm as the Dry Law takes effect and Holy Week gets under way). But where
is Henrique Capriles? Has anyone seen him?

Nope, no sign of him anywhere.

It might be his terrible
numbers<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/03/whos-yer-president-baby.html>.
Or maybe it’s because the bus driver is about to eat his
lunch<http://venezuelanalysis.com/news/8322>.
Or maybe it’s the other oppos, plotting behind his
back.<http://venezuelanalysis.com/analysis/8324> In
any case, the ignominy of Majunche — more Bolivarian than
Bolívar<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/03/the-ironies-of-the-venezuelan-opposition-part-4.html>
, more Chavista now than
Chávez<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/03/the-ironies-of-the-venezuelan-opposition-part-6.html>
—
losing twice to a dead man is just too much for even the most fervent of
the opposition media. They took him off their front pages, and they’re
yattering on about everything BUT him.

Do you suppose the distraction will work?
