Aquino will be the new president while roxas and binay still fighting it out neck to neck. The philippines election is a good one this time around with minimum violence.
Perhaps there's a turn of people's hearts; they have had enough of the so-called freedom, now they want stability and economical progress.
Arroyo holds on to her influence thru appointing her chief justice - accordingly the legislative branch has more of her people to allow her to do that. she's a tough nut to crack.
surprisingly, erap ran a very strong 2nd in the presidential race. Somebody said, villar should partner his son, jinggoy as vice president, then the combined votes from villar and the erap camp would be giving aquino his run for the money.
One more thing about philippines politics, entertainment has entered into politics big time, people like erap, edu, vilma, bong, rico, imelda papin... all from the entertainment circle have played a big part in politics...so much so you think that politics is a big movie played out in the national political arena with everybody playing a big or small part in it. and of course, the real-life actors and actress are naturally good at it.
In fact, the best politician is a director or a producer.they can make all make-believes into realities, at least that's what they are doing in the movies.
but strangely you don't see many director putting up their for election.
may be, they think if politics is really like a movie, then it must be a tragedy.......
