They could just as easily be talking about the United States

it seems like they're all using karl rove's playbook...
As President Néstor Kirchner’s George Bush's acolytes relentlessly continue to amass power in Congress in the wake of their impressive show of force over the Council of Magistrates reform other two branches of government, opposition in Argentina the United States (or rather the lack thereof) becomes even more important. A fragmented opposition faces at least as many problems as its splinters with precious little time to resolve them — especially with possibly early elections, which would leave scarcely more than a year the 2006 elections coming up.

No single description of opposition dilemma can cover every facet but perhaps the core of the problem is that any opposition grouping with clout tends to lack leadership and ideas (or vice versa).

it DOES sound kinda familiar, doesn't it...?
