<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>委內瑞拉總統查維茲已成為那些說「如果不能打倒他們，就推他們」的人的一份子。
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>Chavez opened a Twitter account launching himself into the digital fray to combat opponents who have seized on the micro-blogging site to criticize his socialist government.
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>查維茲開設了一個 Twitter帳號，投入數位化舌戰，對抗利用這種微網誌批評他的社會主義政府的反對派。
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>The <SPAN class=tpop onmousemove="pup('ssp1','2830');" id=ssp1 style="CURSOR: pointer" onmouseout=x_hide(); value="2830">loquacious</SPAN> leader sent his first message from his Twitter account on 28. April ： "I'm off to Brazil. And very happy to work for Venezuela. We will be victorious!!"
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>這名聒噪的領導人4月28日從他的Twitter帳號發出第一個訊息：「我正要出發去巴西，而且非常高興為委內瑞拉服務。我們將勝利！！」
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>Chavez's Twitter account, "chavezcandanga," is headed toward the top of Venezuela's most-popular list, gaining more than 79,000 followers less than 24 hours after he sent his first message. "Candanga" roughly translates to "devil" in some Latin American countries, though in Venezuela it can mean "<SPAN class=tpop onmousemove="pup('ssp2','2831');" id=ssp2 style="CURSOR: pointer" onmouseout=x_hide(); value="2831">rabble-rouser</SPAN>."
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>查維茲的Twitter帳號「chavezcandanga」正邁向委內瑞拉最受歡迎的名單第一名，在他送出第一封訊息後不到24小時，已經擁有超過7萬9000名追隨者。雖然「Candanga」這個字在委內瑞拉可能表示「群眾煽動家」，但在某些拉丁美洲國家一般被譯為「魔鬼」。
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>But known for hours-long speeches, Chavez will now face the challenge of keeping his outpourings within the 140-character limit demanded by Twitter.
<DIV style="HEIGHT: 15px"></DIV>但以常發表數小時長篇大論演說出名的查維茲，現在將面臨把他要說的話控制在Twitter限制的140個字以內的挑戰。</SPAN>
