KEYWORDS: argentina; libertarian; milei
Milei, an admirer of Donald Trump, is the libertarian candidate, sometimes described by the f-ed up American media as far-right. He's kind of a protest candidate. He isn't a career politician, but was a singer in a rock band. Milei won the so-called primary a month ago. This poll indicates he has consolidated his position in first place. The Argentina election could be the most dynamic election outside the U.S. this year.

Massa is the candidate of the ruling left-fascist Peronist party, the party of triple-digit inflation that has absolutely ruined the country. He looks on line to finish second and qualify for a run-off.

Bullrich is the candidate of the conservative Cambio Party (or, party of change). She looks like the odd person out. But, her party is doing great in regional elections leading up to the federal election, ousting the Peronists in one after another province. I think her party will win the Congress and be in a good position to work with Milei.

I sure hope he wins. Maggie Thatcher took office a year before Reagan. I’d like to see it repeated with this goofy-haired guy. This will set things up in Canada. He drives his arguments home. I’d like to see a reenactment of the Chicago Boys.

If he wins and the economy turns around, they’re going to try to take him out.

Milei’s comments about Pope Francis in the Tucker Carlson interview were priceless.

Rooting for him. Saving the basket-case that is Argentina is likely an impossible, thankless job, but a Milei victory will at least be a well-deserved, well-timed thumb in the eye to leftist tyrant Bergoglio.

The leftist can always come back like they did in Chile.

Bill Clinton-good economy in the wake of Reagan’s wave.
Bloomberg-leftist who knew Giuliani’s formula.

Conservatives set things up for the left to take down. Then the cycle starts over again. 2020 was the exception. Don’t know if the pendulum will swing our way as the left & MSM will gum up the works. It’s gotta get so bad the people vote overwhelmingly for one side. Will it matter this time? The left’s true colors may not matter. They’re not hiding anything.

Yes, as we see in our own country, the socialists’ promise of a free lunch is eternally attractive to many voters. This is a weakness of democracy.
