Hang on your pesos boys, we are going for ride in the morning.

It is official. Pinera is President.

Frei is on TV right now giving his concession speech.

I would like to know everyone's thoughts on what to expect in the next 4 years for Chile.
Everyone, let's kick this to a fresh thread:

Interesting. Totally tranquilo aca. No honking horns or other flaite-like behavior.

I get the sense that everyone is relieved that it's over and that there may be some kind of change from the past 20 years. Life goes on. I'm sure all the long range public transport to the coast and parts south and north will be full tomorrow.

Salud

Frei just spoke at Piñera's party. On the heels of the live televised call from Bachelet to Piñera and his wife, I'd say the transition from 20 years of Concertation-Left to the Center Right-Right is going smoothly. A democracy that the rest of Latin America can only wish for in their sweetest dreams.
