The Right is trying to allege that there is something fishy about the country's inflation figures, even though the rate in August was the highest for four months. The central bank president, Martí­n Redrado, was the first to give the issue a stir, by saying that the bank was deeply concerned about inflation. The Right desperately needs some issue which it can inflate into an obstacle to prevent Cristina Fernández, the wife of the current president, Néstor Kirchner, winning the presidency in the first round at the end of October.
