Back in June of last year: Chavez addressed the issue during his homecoming speech,
insisting that his popularity ``would never fall because Chavez is no longer Chavez.
Chavez is the people.''--(Fervor Fading Over Venezuela's Chavez--trucking in "supporters" giving marathon speeches)
Since then Venezuelans have questioned his sanity and want him removed for madness.
They've even asked the church to exorcise him.
