GMA's REAL Candidate

Recently, the Yellow Camp has been doing an all out demolition job on Manny Villar. Since they saw that their mudslinging has been effective especially with regards to the recent surveys, all they do now is spread and snowball the issues.

One of the major issues that are thrown at Villar is the 'Villaroyo' accusation. Noynoy and the whole Liberal Camp insists that Villar is the administration candidate and would therefore be Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's ally.

We all know that Noynoy's only campaign strategy is to bash and criticize the Arroyo administration, release false issues to his fellow candidates, and get popularity/emotional votes.

But in fact, it is Noynoy who seems to be linked closer to the Arroyo administration... READ THIS:

MANILA, Philippines--If Senator Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III is the real opposition then he should explain why he has relatives working with President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.

This was how Senator Manny Villar countered the allegations by Aquino’s camp that he was an administration bet as shown by Arroyo allies endorsing his presidential bid.

Unlike Aquino, Villar said he has no relatives working for the Arroyo government.

“Ako walang kamag-anak na kasama ng Pangulo. Si Noynoy yata anim o lima? Eh bakit ako ang dapat magpaliwanag, eh sila ang nag-imbento ng Villaroyo, sila rin ay kailangan magpaliwanag (I don’t have relatives who are with the President. I think Noynoy have five or six? Then, why should I explain when they are the ones who invented ‘Villaroyo.’ They should also explain,’ he said in a radio interview Tuesday night.

Villar also noted that Arroyo’s former Cabinet members are, in fact, now allied with Aquino and helping his campaign.

“Kung sinasabi natin na ang Pangulo ay corrupt, ibig mong sabihin naging corrupt lang ang pangulo pag alis nila? Kung sinasabi mong corrupt ang pangulo baka noon pa yun eh di kasama din sila (If we say the President is corrupt, does that mean that the President became corrupt only after they left her? Maybe the President was already corrupt when they were still together),” he pointed out.

“The very same people that brought us where we are now…eh yan din ang kasama niya (Noynoy) (are the same people who are with Noynoy now),’ Villar added.

He could not understand why Aquino has not been accused of being an administration bet when some of Arroyo’s allies, like Quezon City Representative Feliciano Belmonte and former Senator Ralph Recto join Aquino’s Liberal Party.

And when they joined Aquino’s camp, they called them “principled” people but when they joined him in the Nacionalista Party, they were viewed as an indication of alliance between him and the President, Villar lamented.

The senator confirmed that construction magnate Reghis Romero was helping his campaign but immediately denied any business dealing with him.

“Si Reghis Romero ay kaibigan ko naman. Inaamin ko naman tumutulong sa akin yan, meron silang group na MOVE, pero wala kaming business deals (Reghis Romero is my friend. I admit that he’s helping me, they have a group called MOVE but we don’t have business deals),” Villar said.
