...month, when she and the neo-Peronistas affiliated with Vandor should roll up an impressive vote. In preparation, her lieutenants were busy last week planning a "national assembly of Peronismo" to be held in Tucumán, which is expected to rally 3,500 delegates to her support. El Lobo (The Wolf) is still unimpressed. Commented one photographer as he watched Isabelita click into the house on the Calle French: "There goes the Little Red Ridinghood that El Lobo is going...
