Left wing advancing in Latinamerica

I've just read socialist candidate Michelle Bachelet have won the first round of elections for presidency of Chile. She's got 45% of the total votes in yesterday's elections, defeating right-wing parties. However, there will be a second round, and it will be very hard, since left-wing ratio is quite similar. Although the government has said it will not be that tight. If she wins, it will be a tremendous achievement for our region. Not only because she will continue Ricardo Lagos policy, but also because the 54-year-old, tortured during Pinochet dictatorship, former political prisoner, physician woman will become the first woman at
the head of latin america´s fastest growing economy, which traditionally has been reserved for "alpha" males (as in the wolves ^____^). And also because she
is divorced, thus challenging the scheme of a traditional family, widely supported by the most conservative sectors (We must remember the extreme right wing ruled the country during many years, under Pinochet dictatorship). And if Evo Morales win in Bolivia, the number of left-wing parties in the government will really increase, joining to leaders as Luis Inacio Da Silva in Brasil and José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero in Spain. In Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador has a big chance to win the July elections (currently the National Action Party, a right-wing party, rules the government).
