Still, most people have not seen one million, much less millions of people grouped together. There are obviously many, many people in the pictures, but the article should be accurate. Most polls are showing Chavez in the lead, too.

Lest it is not understood, this IS NOT an endorsement for Chavez, but simply an attempt at reality. That people are protesting Chavez, good. Is Chavez' opposition so great that he will DEFINITELY lose, no. The article seems to overinflate things, that is all.

Then again - there's this possibility.

For everyone brave enough to publicly support, let alone publicly protest this maniacal puffaroon, how many are quietly keeping their intent to vote him out close to their vest, to avoid the very real possibility of violence on themselves now or, in the event Chavez wins, in retributions?

It takes a lot of guts to publicly protest a dictator (No need for anyone to inform me he was elected - s skunk by any other name still stinks)
