CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said on Friday that Cuban leader Fidel Castro was walking about and making nocturnal trips outside Havana, countering rumors the ailing 80-year-old was dead.[...]
"He is walking about and goes out at night to visit the countryside, villages and towns," Chavez told cocoa workers east of Caracas.
Latin American media simmered with speculation that Castro died at the weekend, conjecturing Chavez had canceled appointments last Saturday to say farewell.
Don't expect an announcement till after the November US elections.
It would seem Castro has a lot in common with Democrats.
