A popular and
often rueful saying in Argentina holds that the country can only be governed by
Peronists. Avowed followers of former Argentine president Juan Domingo Perón
have used their malleable brand of populism to dominate the political scene for
half a century, even when nominally out of power. This kind of domestic
hegemony may seem very distant from Washington's bipolar politics, but the
Republican Party is starting to take the United States down a similar path.
Perón first came
to power in Argentina as part of a coup in 1943 and then won the subsequent
presidential elections of 1946. During his first mandate, he set the classic
Peronist pattern of massive public investment and expansion of entitlements -- a
combination Americans would probably associate more with Democrats than
Republicans. But his spending spree was a general policy rather than an attempt
to cushion a depressed economy, so <a href="http://moxlad.fcs.edu.uy/es/basededatos.html">high inflation</a> was the
inevitable result.
...
Perón's
successors have continued to carry that banner, and they have also made life
exceptionally difficult for their political opponents....

Seems to be the gist of it.
