Poll Numbers
I got back from France last night, and am very behind in reading both news and blogs. But here are some poll numbers from BBB. Of particular note is that approval ratings of President Chávez has experienced a drop, though his support remains strong. I think an interesting question would be how closely his ratings are tied to oil prices.
In presidential campaigns, Lopez Obrador continues to lead the race among presidential candidates in Mexico, while in Peru former president Alan García has stayed pretty strong, despite how widely his presidency (1985-1990) was viewed as a failure. At various times I've read that Alberto Fujimori, now sitting in a Chilean prison, would still receive a solid percentage of votes, despite having fled to Japan in disgrace.

Good point--maybe we'll get a poll to see exactly how many people support it. It'll be expensive, since the change will be reflected on official government documents and even money.
