uhuh
while i think that stevechia has his own issues i find it amusing that the campaign tagline of his opponent, whatever his name is, revolves around something like "would you vote for a quitter or stayer?", taking a dig at stevechias declaration that he would leave politics if he lost in his third bid to win a seat.
its very strange to suggest that stevechias a quitter firstly because his track record actually defies such a description. i mean hello hes coming back for a third time after losing twice, very unglamorously, and all that trouble with the law, i think he, if anything, exemplifies fighting back. not that this means i endorse him personally of course, its just a point to note.
its just a load of bull and a load of hypothetical situations that old men will fall for. i mean, these are after all the people that turn up at rallies and whatnot.
i think the whole thing regarding how the ruling party has a proven track record thing, while legitimate, is unfair. such a track record was only possible based on precedence and at the expense of another. track record does not prove ability. for all we know the opposition is equally capable just that theyve never been given a chance to actually participate, i dont mean the token ncmp or chaimseetong.
that said, the whole jamesgomez issue has been quite disappointing because he seems to have quite deliberately done what he did. its quite a blow to the credibility of the opposition i think. more significantly, i think the issue, while serious, is being blown out of proportion by the ruling party. yes its an issue of credibility but they have been very cunning and associate gomez' own credibility with the party as a whole. very unfair this whole business.

on a seperate note, i just got this article which said that the large the income differences among a group of people (specifically in this study, footballers), the harder it is for them to function properly together (i.e. dissatisfaction and other problems exist) and the more they are integrated with the rest of the team, i.e. the closer everyone is, the more the problems are amplified.
maybe having rich friends is really not a good idea.
