Hala! Our 2010 Election has truly become some We Are Family – mapapahiya ang Carnival sa Rio. And if we have Balimbing as the National Political Fruit, welcome Garapata: The Official animal of Philippine Politics. Fiesta sya and you don’t have to travel to Maguindanao para makakita nang warlord. Andami kamo nila!

Yeap! So, wer wer we? Let’s start here.

Gloria Arroyo have two (2) sons in Congress already, merong pang Iggy at Lourdes. Who knows kung ilan pa ang relatives nya dyan sa tabi tabi. With her running for public office again, this time in Congress, hindi lang sya ang We are Family sa election na to. Haller! Friend nya kamo sina Ampuputa.

Jojo Binay is running for Vice-President, his son Makati Councilor Jun-Jun Binay hopes to follow in the footsteps of his father by filing his certificate of candidacy for mayor in Makati.

In Davao City, Sara Duterte is running for mayor for a post that will be vacated by her father, Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.

Joc Joc Bolante of the fertilizer scam fame is vying for a gubernatorial post in Capiz. Baka siguro dun na siya magfertilize. Oo nga naman, pwedeng magFarmville dun at kapag mega fertilizer siya dun, e di dagdag experience points pa yun! Wag nyo pala kalimutan i-fertilize ang crops nya para bonggang bongga ang pag-harvest nya mamya! LOL. Teka muna, ano na ang nangyare sa mala-telenobelang imbestigasyones ng fertilizer fund scam na yan?? Baka puro lang imbestigasyon, wala na namang resulta!

How about Jovito Palparan who is seeking a  Senatorial position? Teka nga ulet?? Di ba kakaupo lang nyan sa House of Representatives? Baket ata nagmamadali papuntang Senado ang isang ito. Ano bang meron sa Senado by the way? Pakitanong nga kay Speaker Nograles kung meron na bang naipasang batas yan at baka nagpapainit lang ng pwet yan sa Kongreso. Sayang lang ang taxes na pampasweldo natin sa kanila noh!

According sa balita:

Palparan, who is running as an independent, said he is not closing his doors in joining major political parties. “I would love to be adopted by some major parties,” he said.

Ay oo! Merong party list ang Hospicio de San Jose at Golden Acres. Baka kako nagaampon sila for senatorial position. LOL. Hallerness kako, ano na ulet nangyare sa imbestigasyon ng human rights kemerlou nya na mismong si Commissioner Melo pa ang umupo dun? What nga again??

Another is Jamby Madrigal who will be running as an independent candidate for the 2010 presidential elections. Kiver nyo, but with the powers of Juday (ja-ja-ja-jamby) e makakuha pa ng votes ang ateng natin. Not to mention, baka lalo dumami ang mga green beads na ikakalat sa rally, bonus pati ang litraks nya.

At hoy! Wag kayong kemerlou! Baka sumagot ng aneklavu si Richard Gomez na tatakbong congressman! Yes! as in yesterday! Tatakbo siyang congressman. E saan nya natipuhang makipag-marathon papuntang Haus of Refresentatives? O eto ang assignment: Kunin ang mapa ng pilipinas at hanapin ang Ormoc, Southern Leyte na nakapikit.OO, nakapikit! O di ba? Vonggacious. Tanong ulet: taga dun ba si Richard? Alam kong si Lucy lang ang taga doon at tubong Maynila itong si Richard.  Ano bang meron sa mga candidates na ito? Hindi naman sila taga-doon e pilit tumatakbo bilang congressman kemerlou. Di ba dapat ang tatakbo lang for those government positions e yung taga doon or at least to say e tumira na ng di baba sa 1 taon dun? Magiging tanong din kasi dyan yung kamalayan ng isang candidate sa internal affairs ng probinsya. So Richard, knowie-bells mo ba ang happenings sa Ormoc? Baka wit-wiz lang ang isagot mo. Wag kang kembotero oy!

Isang linggong pag-ibig este isang araw ng pag-file ng COC itong si Imelda Papin at Jay Sonza. Si Jay Sonza, tatakbong vice president daw while Imelda Papin will try to sing her ageless tunes mula sa hallway ng Senado. O di ba? May talk show na sa Malacanang, may jukebox pa sa Senado. Bow!

Make way people! Here comes the TRANSFORMERS!

What? Ano ulet? TRANSPORMERS? Bumalik na ba si Optimus Prime at Bumblebee?? Duh. Asaness. I am talking about Dick Gordon at Bayani Fernando. Syempre, campaign managers nila sina Ondoy, Pepeng, Ramil at Santi. Yeeezz. Mega exposure ang dalawang yan dahil sa mga dumaang delubyo dito sa pinas. Teka, saan ba sila anib? Sa AWTO-BOTS OR SA SEP-SEPTICONS? rofl.

By the way, as added bonus, eto pa ang ilan sa kapartido ng mga transpormers:

O di ba? VONGGA! Hahahha.

Now, what about the Marcoses? Well, former Rep. Imee Marcos is challenging the reelection bid of her cousin, Gov. Michael Keon. Now, this is interesting. Will this lead to family feud? And since Ilocos Norte Rep. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. is running for senator, surprise! Ok, well there is no surprise here that Imelda, through a representative, filed her certificate of candidacy (CoC) for representative of Ilocos Norte’s second district on Tuesday night. She will face former Vice Gov. Mariano Nalupta Jr. O, davaaa?? How old is Imelda? Magic Otsenta. As in 80. Haller! When you’re 80, ano ang nasa utak mo? Aber?

UPDATE: Isang pahabol na garaparata:

The Court of Appeals, in a dramatic last-minute decision, has ordered Romeo “Jon-Jon” Jalosjos Jr. reinstated as a voter in Ipil town in Zamboanga Sibugay, allowing him to run for a congressional seat in the province’s second district despite his being the incumbent mayor of Tampilisan in the neighboring province of Zamboanga del Norte. Jalosjos Jr. is a son of convicted rapist and former Zamboanga del Norte congressman Romeo Jalosjos. (Source: Ellen Tordesillas)
