Bush took his eye off South America to wage his senseless war in the Middle East. Socialist governments have been springing up like mushrooms right in his own back yard.
"Bolivians went to the polls yesterday to elect a new president, with popular indigenous leader Evo Morales hoping for a historic victory in south America's poorest country.
Opinion polls showed Mr Morales, 46, a former coca farmer, on 34%, a 5% lead over his nearest rival, Jorge 'Tuto' Quiroga, a protege of the late, former dictator Hugo Banzer. If there is no clear majority there will be a run-off in January."
