With both presidents facing tight re-election fights, Venezuela's Hugo Chavezgave a surprise endorsement to Barack Obama on Sunday - and said the U.S. leader no doubt felt the same.
"I hope this doesn't harm Obama, but if I was from the United States, I'd vote for Obama," the socialist Chavez said of a man he first reached out to in 2009 but to whom he has since generally been insulting.
Chavez is running for a new six-year term against opposition challenger Henrique Capriles, while Obama seeks re-election in November against Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Venezuela's election is next weekend.

I thought Chavez was hired by Obama to count the USA votes in November.
No doubt in my mind that they would vote for each other.
Birds of a communist feather flock together.
When in hell is America going to wake up and smell the communist coffee brewing in the White House?
Obama is proud to have the endorsement.
Heartwarming ain't it.
Both elections will be won with crooked results.
I want my free cell phone and food stamps and health care , I don't have to work , the crackers will take care of me.
