Yesterday's press was speculating about Hippo's showdown with the local Attorney General. It was to be the showdown at the OK corral between the PPH and the PLD. I was smelling blood and so were most of the people I talked to yesterday. Finally some light, some measure of justice was on the horizon..........Then, I woke up today to realize I was living in the DR. And things here are never what they seem. TOdays press....After a 3 hour meeting with Leonel, attorney General postpones Hippo interview. Are people here nuts?? What was that all about??Are they waiting to get juicier stuff on Hippo or are they afraid to go thru with it because Quirino supposedly donated more money to the PLD campaign than to the PRD?? And hippo got evidence of moneys forwarded to Francisco Javier Castillo, now minister of industry and then Leonel campaign manager???
Are they waiting to get juicier stuff on Hippo's multi million dollar mountain retreat or are they afraid of what he has to say about the origin of the funds for Leonel's Global Foundation??
Now I am reminded again that in the DR things are never what they seem, everything turns ugly, there is no black and white...just brown and even roses smell like sh!t!!!
