Canadian Paul 97 Posted December 3, 2006 This reminds me a lot of the George Best poll... and we all remember what happened with that... Though for many other reasons, I voted this week, because if it's not this week, it's probably not this year, and I don't think he's got that much more time left.

Godot 149 Posted December 3, 2006 A poll asking "who do people think will die first: Pinochet, Castro or Sharon?" might have been revealing. I think it has to be Pinochet now although I still think one of the other two could surprise us before the year end. If the bookies offered bets on that kind of thing it would make a realistic treble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magere Hein 1,400 Posted December 4, 2006 Poll cleaned and question added. This ruined previously cast votes, I don't know if you can vote again. Anyway, I voted that P. will live to see 2008. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim_Rita 4 Posted December 4, 2006 Seems a *bit* of a coinky dink that he just happens to have a heart attack the week after he's put under house arrest. Makes me wonder if ole Biggsy really did go to Brazil or was actually giving avoid justice tips in Chile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Oates 21 Posted December 4, 2006 I voted for 2007 but I'm hoping I'm wrong - I need the points! The second question is a difficult one. It's between Castro (my vote) and Pinochet; we don't have daily medical reports about Fidel's health or otherwise so it's guesswork here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windsor 2,233 Posted December 5, 2006 I just want him to die. I'm now in 33rd place in the DDP. Wouldn't be much of a boost if he does go but still another 4 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
