The Left is looking very good in the polls.

In Brazil, that is.

In March, Serra (the corporate-friendly, bend-over-for-the-US bunch's favorite) was leading 35-30. In December, he was leading 38-17. Unlike what I wrote in March, now it seems possible for Roussef to win with no need for a runoff. The Brazilian wingnuts are screaming bloody murder and shitting blood. And. It. Is. Oh. So. Pleasant.

Poor people voting for their best interests. What a concept.

1. I wonder if they're ... gasp ... professionals. n/t

3. Is this partly because of Lula?

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

5. "Partly" is a hell of an understatement.

This administration's approval numbers are astronomical.

6. Correct me if I'm wrong but...

I believe that there is no law forbidding LGBT people from serving in the Brazilian Armed Forces.Sexual orientation cannot be a requirement for entry into the police force or the military in Brazil.Recognition of same-sex unions in Brazil has occurred since 2004.

Those pesky professional Lefties are popping up everywhere !

7. Well, popularity doesn't always transfer straight over.

But I'm glad to hear it is this time.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

10. It isn't straight over.

Hell, when asked without a list, 20% of pollees still reply "Lula"!

[EFerrari]

11. LOL! I think I would, too.
