[edit] Blanked

I removed a virtual blanking of the page. We should update this stuff later. I think he has been having an important role in the opposition to Ortega. Brusegadi 04:27, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] win vs granted

Using the word "win" is very misleading. Montealegre didnt WIN a seat in congress, he was granted one as a concillation prize. In order to win something, you must have been in its pursuit. He did not run for congress, he ran for president- and lost. He was subsequently granted a seat in congress. Please refrain from POV, as that is wikipedia policy.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.157.26.107 (talk • contribs) I think it is better to say granted then win. Good catch.

[edit] On banks

acquired failed banks is POV. Banco Mercantil has been judicially determined to have been completely viable when it was auctioned of irregularly to Bancentro at 1/3 its value. Also, these banks were confiscated, not acquired. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.164.84.163 (talk) 20:00, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

The way the story is told is that the banks could not pay. They went broke. I recall an acquaintance was worried about Banco del Cafe (since he had money there) and had a couple of very stressful days. If Mercantil is any different, a source would be good.
