Hugo Chavez faced his first ever electoral defeat last night, as 51% of voters chose not to allow constitutional reforms that would let Chavez be indefinitely eligible for re-election. Shit! No! Please tell us “Alo Presidente” will go on regardless:

Chavez told reporters at the presidential palace that the outcome of Sunday’s balloting had taught him that “Venezuelan democracy is maturing.” His respect for the verdict, he asserted, proves he is a true democratic leader.

“From this moment on, let’s be calm,” he proposed, asking for no more street violence like the clashes that marred pre-vote protests. “There is no dictatorship here.”

The Presidential Suite in our hearts, however, is reserved for you indefinitely. Cue single tear. Fade to black.

    …..it’s “Alo Presidente” One L.

    The good thing about being Venezuelan is that every year we get these heart stopping elections that are more thrilling than doing webcam sex.

    That extra “L” was for “love.” And “lusciousness.”
