...dangerous signal to the region's fledgling democracies, they feel that having Brazil's respected heft thrown more directly into the mix could help negotiations. Says another source close to Lula, "I think the talks are evolving now that Zelaya is back and under our protection." If an accord actually gets inked in Honduras, Brazil's image as a regional power broker will take off. And if not, Lula at least will win points with the leftist base of his Workers Party.

Although Sabatini believes the Micheletti government has blundered by not accepting the San José Accord - "They could have been done with him by now instead of turning him into a political martyr," he says - he feels ALBA's "bad-faith grandstanding" is hurting the pact's chances even more.
