What’s next, Hugo? A Golden Calf?

[Venturer]

He will probably win the Venezuelan elections next year even if he is dead. The fix is in,

[TigersEye]

I smell sulfur.

[CondorFlight]

Some of Venezuela’s previous dictators have been big into Santeria, etc. (especially one fellow whose name escapes me now, but he ruled in the 1930s and always had a Santeria witchdoctor at his side).

(For that matter, IIRC I think the mother-in-law of the One
also believes in Santeria, and in keeping a certain House clean of the spirits...)

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Well I’ve heard of the dead voting before, but dead candidates winning, that’s a different story.

[Venturer]

It’ll be like weekend at Bernies.

I am not even sure Satan has the power to prolong his mortal life. After that, I know he doesn’t.

[Fred]

Well, since Chavez thinks that Dubya is the devil, perhaps he can sell his soul to Dubya in return for immortality.

“I smell sulfur.”

Hope he makes reservations for a table for two when he gets there. Don’t know when the Obamaloon’s time is up, but I’m pretty sure those two will be eating together.

We did it in Missouri. see http://archives.cnn.com/2000/ALLPOLITICS/stories/11/07/senate.missouri/

Well, Nov. 8 2000 Mel Carnahan (Dem. dead) beat John Ashcroft (Repub. live) in the US Senate election.

HUH! deities? spirits of the plains? he is channeling evil.....not Jesus Christ our one and only savior. good luck with that plan.

Está muerte, Diego.

[Billthedrill]

Cancer? What is that for me?

Uh, Huey? Some of those deities you're calling on would like a word with you.

[tioga]

good catch.

[kempo]

All of Castro’s horses and all of Castro’s men can’t put Hugo back together again.

Hugo you put down Capitalism all your life and now you have to depend on third world medicine.

I hope that O’s MIL isn't slicing chickens in the Hut...she and her daughter are quite capable of scaring spirits all on their own. I remember the story of Hugo's idol, Fidel Castro, bringing live chickens into his NYC hotel room back in ‘59(?). I believe they were for dinner and not Santeria.
