Piñera’s great challenge will be to use his 46.6% of the vote in January to strengthen his leadership and his effort to build a new right-wing coalition with unimpeachable democratic credentials, thereby enabling it one day to defeat the ruling “Concertación” coalition that Bachelet leads. Such a reformed right’s opposition to Bachelet will probably focus on her efforts to modify the country’s neo-liberal model as she tackles the country’s persistent knots of poverty and inequality.
