Proyecto Venezuela (PV) leader Henrique Salas Romer has gone public announcing a cooling-off with opposition Coordinadora Democratica (CD).

“There are differences of style … the CD should stop the war of words with President Chavez Frias … we must try to win over his supporters.”

The former (1998) presidential candidate accuses the “old guard” in Accion Democratica (AD) and the Christian Socialist (COPEI) party of using the opposition as a Trojan Horse to further their own political agendae.

In a biting analysis, Salas Romer claims that the opposition’s popularity has taken a dive down after the decision to unite and fight the President in hand to hand combat.
