Binay, who used to be experienced and guaranteed would do a lot better to his young counterpart. I am happy that the two major politicians that my friend had voted are leading. He did not chart the big tandem and I was really amazed by his strong pulse. We are staying at the same villa and my room is just next to his room. I know he had a Filipino local channel subscription as he uses to watch to very loud that i could even hear his TV reverberation even my AC is running and closed doors... He's a good friend of mine though.. and I am learning a lot from him..

oh thanks, surely my smile stretch my lips everytime i received a comments-back from a friend. this friend that i'm talking about used to be my buddy for about 11 years now. and just for your information, i used to watch wowowee most of the time with my friend. I love Mariel and the new comer Kelly as well as Isabel. I coudn't compare Zizy and Luningning for their graceful and sexy energetic dancesteps to any of dancers i have ever seen on TV. Jed and Rachelle Ann are like bombs in the sky when they sing.
I can't say more detailed about your politics but it has a great comparison about our politics in India. If you're having rally most of the times due to politics and religions, that is really a comparable situation between us.

hello dorothy,
well, first congratulations that you're bet won but not just because he has beaten villar, he has beaten that could have been another worse case scenario in our country, and that is for ERAP to return to power noy did run and that's good enough.
but as for the Vice President, I would strongly prefer Binay than Mar Roxas, it seemed that Roxas didn't have executive experiences, that's why i kept popping Gordon and Bayani because of the executive experience. but in this scenario i choose binay since he has track record as a mayor.

hi there Letranknight, how are you?? I could still remember we have a very long discussion on Noy2x against villar and you with Gordon and bayani...yes thanks to Noy2x for without him again we have ERAp as our President.. I just could not understand why people are still voting for him..well to compare to GMA, ERAP is better but there is no turning back.. If he really wanted to help our Country then he would help noy2x.. he is already popular even not in Power can do better and help a lot of filipinos..
I have no question for Binay but I am hoping that Mar Roxas takes the Vice President Position.. Actually a lot of us here in Cebu is hoping..
Have a great day ahead..

People forget, that's why. they tend see reason and to facts, they would easily discard it out of loyalty.

Hi, dorothy. No offense to Mar supporters. My president was Gibo and before I jotted down my list of candidates. My VP was blank.
I don't like Loren because she's Loren. LOL. And I hate it that she's "pikon". During their Harapan with Mar Roxas - she disappoint me in a way.
As for Bayani Fernando, I have seen on how a disciplinarian made a good change of Manila. But I felt that it's not yet enough. If he had run for a senatorial position, he would have my vote.
For Mar, I don't know. I can't feel his sincerity in serving his country. I have this sudden intuition that he's more likely to be the next GMA. So, I didn't vote for him.
And Binay won my vote. I like his positive outlook and I know he's one of the reasons why Makati has improved. But I also want a VP who has his own ideals. May not be synonymous to Noy's but I think Binay would be a great balance in pairing with Noy compare to Mar.
Gordon would have been a good VP too but he ran for a presidential position. =( Maybe next election.

I don't think Bayani needs to be in the Legislative to prove himself to be a good VIce President. look at binay, he's winning the vice presidential seat from being mayor? but bayani was not only mayor, he was also a MMDA chairman. he made progress in the MMDA compare to what binay did when he was chairman.
AS for Gordon, i think it's a lot more Illogical to have him as just VP they guy who't not afraid to tackle and debate issues.
We prefer him again as the next Candidate for President rather than VP.
I have seen all the Debates, Forums and interviews, for me, he stands out the best.

I voted for Noy-Mar tandem and I will stick to Mar Roxas as my Vice President. Like LP I am still hoping Mar could catch up Binay. Though the chances remain elusive, hopefully the remaining 10% of the votes which are yet to be transmitted, will favor for Senator Roxas. I always believe he is the right person who can support Noy Aquino in Philippine governance.

hi there Jlamela,I also voted for Noy-Mar tandem because I believe in them..though a lot of people say they have not done anything as senators..no I dont believe so, they are not like other senators that in everything they do they always want the people know.. a lot of people tell that during President cory time she had not done anything as president,, I dont know what could be there life without President cory for she gave us the democracy.. Personally I admire Aquino Family and I love them very much.. as for Noy2x Aquino I wanted as possible Mar Roxas to be his Vice President.. hOpefully for a better philippines

I actually voted for Bayani Fernando, but if I'm going to choose between Mar and Binay, I think I would go with Mar. I think Mar has the knowledge to be able to help Noynoy run the country smoothly, specially with regards to Economics. I think Binay did a great job to Makati, but I hate the fact that he is denying that Makati has bad areas that also needs help, we focus more on MBD and we forget that Makati is actually a big city, and there are places that are really run down and just needs attention from the government.

hi there Inkingderders, agree with you, Mar Roxas would be a best tandem for Noy2x.. I also believe in them on their good intentions for the better of our country. hopefully mar roxas wins but if binay well its alright.
There would be better Philippines because there would be no corruption as per Kris aquino hehehehe.
thanks for the response

Honestly, I did not vote any of them because I voted for BF. But since my bet is way below the competition of Mar and Binay, I think I'll just go for Binay. I think he is more qualified and has more potential to do more things that will benefit the people like what he did in makati. He has done many things than mar and he has a good track record. Besides, I like the way he works, thus the name "The executioner." He will be a good support for Aquino as the vice-president.

Bayani's Marikina is bigger result of leadership and properity in the City than Makati because they have big business man there like the Ayala's.

I do not believe in Roxas capability to become Vice president. If Binay won for sure he will ead the country all throughout. I have no doubt with Binay, he had done so many service in Makati. As his dialogues say he already done works that others just promising now. But I am glad that Roxas give way for Noynoy's candidacy as a President. That is being gentlemen.

if the only choice now is between the two of them i can say that i will be in favor of mr. roxas. though i am not a fan of them. but it is very exciting to see what a vice and a president who came from the same party, what they can do for a better Philippines. and because they are at the same party then they have the same goals and the same plans. but if binay will win just like you said, is okay. we all need to give the winners of the election chance to prove their worth.

hi there se7enthbird, agree people are really in favor of Mar Roxas..I was also thinking the same way, did the philippines experienced having a president and vice president on the same party lead the country..in the past I think from different parties..I still hope mar Roxas win but if its the call for binay its alright with me.. But if MAR better because they have the same platform hoping it will work with our country with our culture and our attitude hehehehe.
thanks for the response

originally, it was noy and mar tandem for me. but when i had a talk with a friend from capiz, i changed my preference. the next candidate for vice president for me is no less escudero, but because he gave way for noy-mar tandem, i voted fot binay which chiz had endorsed. but personally, even before the infomercials of chiz were aired, i have already made my choice for vice president and chiz seemed to give a period to my decision.

I have learned my lessons not to put too much hope to our politicians. I understand that we have to rejoice after our candidates win an an election but that's where it ends. I think both candidates have impressive qualifications. Both have done something in their fields of expertise. Whoever wins, i'm happy because their my top choices.

HI dorothy.
I think that it is very overwhelming when You know that you have voted for the best. As for me I'm bogus and I'm not registered. I just think that whoever between the two wins are worth the filipino's votes and prove that they can make a difference.

The margin is just too close to each other with only 800k difference against each other. I think that no one will concede on this until the end of the counting.
I did not vote for Binay but I think if he will be the proclaimed winner I will respect that point of view. I think that there is a lot of things that needed to be done ahead and we should forget our political leanings after May 10. Time to work again to reach our goals once again.

the truth about our votes is, it should be private and sacred, and i believe it shouldn't be discussed in any way. but since this is mylot, i will response anyway. i voted for aquino and binay. if binay will win and be proclaimed vice president by the congress, i can say that i hit the bull's eye. at first it was noy-mar but i still believe with chiz and i guess, he made me changed my mind, through his infomercials few days before the elections. if chiz just run for a position last election, he will also have my vote.

I prefer the tandem of Noynoy Aquino and Mar Roxas as well. They have this chemistry just by looking at them. I know Binay has a good track record being a very loyal supporter of the late President, Cory Aquino, but I feel that Aquino and Roxas tandem will do even better. Well, let God decide their fate. Let us pray that whatever the outcome, it will be for the betterment of the country.

mar for me. i believe in him more than binay. sure he made makati a really good city business-wise, but i don't know, i still feel uneasy about him. i think mar is more capable and personality/principles wise a better choice for me.

Well neither Binay or Mar the most important thing must the vice President should do is to look forward for the good of the people of the Philippines.I think the poverty of this country should be taken cared of and a must...and as long as for the good of the country thats it...
