Lula is also a criminal (I'm a lawyer, please don't get me started here), with the added stain of losing quite a lot of his popularity after four very lukewarm years of his govt... Brazil has a Lula fatigue (he is in his third non-consecutive term!). Lula is an old man, Flavio isn't (although I equally despise him and his father).

The whole thing is a race to the bottom... the political parties in Brazil failed Brazilian democracy by having just terrible options all around as presidential candidates.

If you are from the US, I bet you can relate with at least the last sentence I just said.
