I wonder if tensions become re-ignited in Colombia whether more Colombianas will flee to CR now. http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/03/americas/ ... hats-next/ |

I suppose FARC-related costumes are not going to be popular on Halloween then. |

Settlement with the FARC and other groups will be an even slower and evolving political and social process that will take several more decades to be resolved, if truly ever is. Colombians are already used to it. Sad truth

However, after the defeat of "La Paz" last night, the FARC stated that they would be willing to go back to the bargaining table. That is a good sign, and allowed many of us living in Colombia to breathe a sigh of relief. The peace deal, brokered by President Santos and his FARC counterpart, Timichenko, was just too generous for the average Colombian to swallows. The crimes committed by the FARC are not easily forgotten (or forgiven.) |

Another take on my part worth noting is the "experts"/"pollsters" had this wrong (again) and this outcome was not expected. Add to this the events in Scotland and more recently Brexit and it's apparent that the presumption of a Hillary victory should not be taken for granted. |

I read one report that the pollsters were predicting approval by a 2-to-1 margin. I can only hope this trend continues in the U.S. election. |

I thought "La Paz" going to go down by a larger margin than it did. As it turns out, there was only a 54,000 vote difference (roughly 4 votes per voting district. The question went down big time in Medellin and the rest of Antioquia by an almost 2-1 margin. |

Pluuuueeeezzzz No one is "presuming" shit nor does the US election have anything to do with this thread. Take the Trump rally elsewhere while I recommend that you do not hold your breath...  But gentlemen, do get out and vote.
