the main thing i know about argentinian politics is that they have the woman who was the previous dude's wife in charge but i guess that's going to change today?

So apparently kirchner's successor only barely managed to scrape ahead in the first round and they are going to have a second next month.

I don't know much about argentine politics but is this where ballots start being a stuffed and political opponents are discovered to have committed suicide in extremely unlikely ways?

i though it was pretty cool that guatemalan institutions are strong enough to oust a corrupt president. it wasnt that big of a deal either it was a relatively minor scandal

Nope. It's a real democracy.

And even if the government guy wins they'll still have a hard time ruling because they lost control of the congress.

If they got them back they couldn't whine about them to distract people from their crippling inflation.

Well, this elections are hosed up, and the result is going to affect me and my work.

I really hope scioli wins. Macri just want to run the country like a business and gently caress the poor, the working class, the healt and the education just like he did when he was the head of the city.

Its literally pulled out of "Transmetropolitan" year of the bastard.

The Taurus didn't offer much for drivers craving the sport sedan experience. That changed with the 1989 debut of the Ford Taurus SHO (for Super High Output), a Q-ship of the finest order that offered up a high-revving Yamaha-designed V-6 engine and a tight sport suspension.
