According to an article written in the New York Times by ALEXEI BARRIONUEVO, the Kirchner Dynasty in Argentina ends. As Mrs. Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner still holds presidential office, her husband and formal Argentinian president, Nestor Kirchner, has resigned from leader of Peronist Party in national congressional elections. Without electing Mr. Kirchner into power, this will"put Argentina’s presidency up for grabs in the 2011 elections" (nytimes.com). The party suffered a great lost in the Buenos Aires province, which has stirred up a lot of questions for analysts all over the country.
Some say that without the majority of the Kirchner's power, it will bring political instability to the nation, which is on the brink of another recession.
Although Mr. Kirchner is valued for bringing his country out of a recession in 2001, I hardly believe that the absence of one single power couple in government would make a detrimental impact on the economy of Argentina. Especially with Mrs. Kirchner's 30% approval rating, and critisism of the couple's authoritarian tendencies, I don't forsee much of a difference without either of them in office.
