Re: [Marxism] Washington Post denounces Morales refusal to cave in to opposition

There is no wonder Chavez calmly accepted the results. As he implied by
stating that winning with a tiny margin could be more unwelcome result, a
photo-finish victory was the second worst outcome for both sides. He just
let the counter-revolutionaries take the worst of it which requires
further struggle for realization. Tiny margins reveals the incompetence of
potential to turn into the actual. Revolution was already the actual.

Chavez just made a probe bet and it disclosed the potential of the
opponents and trew off the mask of hypocrites within the movement. (In his
article Alan Woods explains the reasons of referandum
results). I think, which he didn't touch upon was a major leak of proper
reasoning behind putting all sixty articles in a package to people's vote.
Then one has sixty reasons to vote for "no". I think this is the main
reason of vast number of abstention. The majority of people who has one or
two of this reasons just refused to vote against Chavez.
