Dueling Demos Over Chavez

Supporters and opponents of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez descended on Caracas on Wednesday in competing demonstrations to mark the 55th anniversary of the fall of Venezuela's last dictator.

But few references were made to Perez during Wednesday's demos, with protesters focusing largely on Chavez.
