The Bushies have called Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez a dictator and a tyrant… but since when do dictators lose elections? …
Now if only Bush had accepted the will of the people as graciously as Chávez.

Joking apart, it looks like Chavez held his victory for granted; as Putin does today.
It’s surprising since history shows us that elections and public opinion happen to deceive the easiest foretelling sometimes.
Doublethink may backfire!
And when this happens, then all the disappointed can do is to look benightedly at the tip of his shoes.
