[quote]Argentina's ailing president has suffered a blow in mid-term elections, losing her majority in Congress and ending chances of a constitutional change to allow her a third term.
The defeat in Sunday's elections will probably set off a contest to succeed Cristina Fernandez Kirchner in 2015.
Voters chose half of the lower house of Congress and a third of the Senate. With 72 percent of ballot boxes counted, the government said the opposition was ahead throughout the country.
"Although the Victory Front Party remains the largest single party in the country and it retains its majority in both houses of congress, it no longer will have free reign to pass legislation the way it had been doing for several years now," Al Jazeera's Lucia Newman reported from Buenos Aires.[/quote]

she didn't really want to annex the falklands, it's just a shiny thing to have people look at while she continues to wreck the country with shit legislation, etc.
-never mind-
Maybe now the country will get a leader that focuses on solving problems more than making them.
