Argentine President could lose control of congress
Argentine President Cristina Fernandez faces one of the most important elections of her career on Sunday, and aides say she's not even following the news.
She's not what she once was with her hubbie gone. Or with the hole in her head...
Fernandez has been secluded in the presidential residence, recovering from skull surgery in the run-up to congressional elections that will decide how much power she'll have during the final two years of her presidency.

Her doctors say she must avoid stress, so Interior Minister Florencio Randazzo says she wasn't even told about the train crash causing new problems for the government this week.

Polls suggest the ruling Front for Victory party will lose ground in both houses, burying the idea that she'll win the super-majority necessary to change the constitution and enable re-election to a third straight term.
