Morales is a regular guy from a humble background who wants to do good by the people. The only real problem I have with him is his admiration for the Butcher of La Cabana, Che Guevara. But some people can have selective memories.
Chavez is a power-hungry wanna-be dictator who quashes dissent, buys off voters with his petro-dollars and constantly invokes the bogey-man to keep the people in line. Now that the petro-dollars are dwindling and nobody appears to be invading, Chavez is in a panic as to how he's going to maintain power. He's going to have to manufacture a crisis soon.
Obama's policy of pretty much ignoring Chavez is one of the worst possible things for Chavez. It's genius.
