What a show

AP INTERVIEW: Chavez connects with poor (AP)

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez greets a pedestrian as he drives a four wheel drive during a road trip through the Venezuelan Apure State on Saturday, June 9, 2007. Chavez clasped hands and planted kisses on cheeks, heads and hands of the people who turned out in the pouring rain to see him — an emotional connection that he called the driving force behind the socialist revolution that has pitted him against Washington.(AP Photo/Fernando Llano)AP - The Toyota 4Runner pulled to a stop on the country road and a tinted window rolled down. Passers-by gawked, then broke into a run, screaming "president!" when they realized Hugo Chavez was at the wheel. "I love you!" cried a middle-aged woman with tears in her eyes, thrusting a fistful of flowers into the car.
