PRD Supporters Promised Victory Feast

Thousands of supporters  of the presidential candidate of the Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD), Laurentino Cortizo packed  Via Espana  on Wednesday  Apl 30   in an orchestrated final  rally  billed as  the Uniting Forces Festival.

It kicked  off with  with zumba classes, and developed  into  a family fair with the participation of national artists, like  Osvaldo Ayala, Samy and Sandra Sandoval, Los Gaitanes, Margarita Henríquez, Japanese, Principal, Mr. Salt and Pepper before the final flavoring of speeches  laden with political promises and  the final soupcon  of predictions of the presentation of a glorious victory on May 5.

At 6:10 p.m. Cortizo, went on stage, to remind his followers that they are only a few hours away from the victory feast and to be sure to turn out early  to frustrate other wannabee diners at the ruler’s table.

“Uniting strength is to avoid more deaths due to medications that are not available,” Cortizo said and  added a few more  flavorings  already espoused by previous head chefs, and current wannabees like generating employment, while  ending  a decade of corruption, incapacity and lies. 

The menu. has been set and the invitations  sent out, but who will show for dinner remains to be seen. Last time there was a surprise host  to decide who would be  sitting where at the head table.
