Noynoy the Inevitable?

We are now 6 months away from that magic month of May. Yeap. I hope there ain’t gonna be any Comelec magic for survey after survey, Noynoy has been leading all the way. So, just like what JB Baylon said, is the Noynoy Presidency inevitable?
The phenomenon that is Noynoy is actually something more than Noynoy, something bigger than Noynoy. Its Noynoy, yes, but more than Noynoy it is also all about Cory. Yes, to some extent it is also about Kris. To some extent it is also about GMA, as it is about Erap and Villar and Gilbert. And it is about Ninoy and Marcos and Imelda and FVR and Enrile and Cardinal Sin, as it is about ZTE and JDV and Oakwood and Edsas 3, 2 and 1.
I read it as people are just sick and tired of them.
But there’s something interesting going on with the Liberal Party. You see, there has been a number of defections and most of these defections are one way street to Liberal Party. Heck! Who would not want to be with the frontrunner eh? So when Sen. Ralph Recto, who recently resigned as director general of the National and Economic Development Authority, and his wife Vilma Santos moved to Libertal Party, former Sen. Sergio “Serge” Osmeña III balked. He doesn’t wanna be aligned with defectors from the administration coalition.
Here’s what Angara has to say:
LP was experiencing difficulties because of its “top heavy leadership” torn by infighting. Aquino had no experience in organizing and that there were several powerful factions in his camp, including the Cojuangcos, the Aquinos, the Aranetas and civil society groups, such as the Black and White Movement.
“A strong leader can withstand that factional infighting. If you are a weak leader, you will be eaten up by everyone,” said Angara, president of the Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino that is looking for a presidential candidate to support.
I think a Noynoy Inevitable is inevitable and this is the reason for the current infighting. These guys are now positioning themselves for the cabinet appointments. The risk to the party? An implosion.

The Noynoy presidency is as invevitable as the Erap presidency was in 1998 and an FPJ presidency (had he survived to see it) in 2004.
The defections are just the vacuousness of Philippine political “parties” being manifested. Because there is no philosophy, party line or ideology at stake and only winnability that motivates, bozos simply flock to where the smell of victory emanates the most (that’s what popularity surveys — like the one done by Pulse Asia — are for).
What else is there to “analyse”?
Nothing else, other than why Noynoy remains unmarried at 49.
see? noynoy is not even president yet and he has already helped the nation in population control and within the bounds of the catholic teaching. commendable!
Celibacy is the best policy!
Sakit ka talaga sa pwet, benign0!
Maybe you should present yourself as the ‘alternative’ candidate, b0? Tell them Pinoys and Pinays on the campaign stage how vacuous they all are?
REYNZ:
Firstly,more power to you!
Secondly,a question:
Should a President Noynoy appoint a TEAM of RIVALs (a la’Obama) to his cabinet?
EQ
Yo! EQ! My thoughts? There really is a risk that Noynoy and Mar are taking with the inclusion of rivals in their turf, it will probably cost them a few supporters but that is something that he has to juggle such that the party will not totally implode. This is also like moving away from the typical patronage that has characterized our political landscape. And I see something commendable in what they’re doing, getting some of the good ones to help them push they programs/missions. Thing is, who really are the good ones beyond their personal objectives? Tough huh? So yeah, why not? Noynoy has to be ready for the traffic job. Besides, that’s a leader job. Get those who have the right skill set and put them on the job regardless of party affiliation but I probably would stop short, if it will leave my party in disarray!
guys, ur forgetting about hacienda luisita…
tsk tsk tsk..
they’ve celebrate (do dey have to?) their anniversary but theyve never gotten any justice whatsoever..
wish everybody sees dat…
hindi ako agree na inevitable si Noynoy..
di pa nagsisimula ang kampanya. at konti lang yang covered ng mga survey na yan.
we’ll see.
I disagree about the inevitability.
Using the same sampling base, considering that he went from 60% approval in October (SWS) to 44% approval in October (Pulse Asia) – that’s a 16% reduction in 2 months. With 6 months to go, as the campaign becomes more issues-oriented – under the worst case scenario (decrease of 16% every 2 months) –
September 2009 – 60%
November 2009 – 44%
Jan 2010 – 28%
Mar 2010 -12%
Or a decrease of half of the past two months:
September 2009- 60%
November 2009- 44%
Jan 2010 – 36%
Mar 2010 – 32%
It is also amusing, how the very politicians who are accused as being “corrupt” and supporting Arroyo are switching allegiances like lemmings. Are they now less “corrupt” because they switched allegiances. With the Lp, Noynoy and co, accepting these same politicians – dontcha think these birds of same feather thingie fly together – think about it.

Politician are afraid of Noynoy Aquino because:
“He is sincere. It is not everyday you can see that in the eyes of politician nowadays!”
Just my 2 cents here.
