My take is that, from the moderate center to the right wing fringe, that would clearly demonize Zelaya, or at least make him disposable.  Perhaps 30% would continue to support him here.  That is possibly generous. And the RW will tar any US supporters of Zelaya as "soft on [whatever works as a stand-in for Communism these days.]" Worse, less than 15% of the US electorate is even aware of the Honduran situation, until and unless RW talk radio turns "State Department betrayal of US interests" into their rant of the day.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
