It was bound to happen in a Noynoy Aquino presidency, having disparate groups behind him, with each group, or bloc, claiming credit for making him win the polls, as well as making a bid for more power and influence within the administration, while cutting off others. And those who are cut off or are in danger of being cut off from the power line, will naturally be among the first to show discontent at the “ingratitude” of the new dispensation. As revolutions devour their children, so do victories devour the victors’ supporters who do not have the same tools with which to survive in a veritable snake pit. As things stand today in the blocs of Noynoy Aquino, there is obviously a pro-Mar Roxas group and an anti-Roxas bloc as well as a pro-Jojo Binay group and an anti-Binay group, the Liberal Party officers and members, along with the most influential, Sisters Inc. grouping, the Kaklase Inc., the Cory veterans group and the old Kamag-Anak Inc., that publicly strives to survive, even when this family group knows that privately, it can’t quite be shaken out of the power equation. There is too, that infamous group of the Black and Whites, the Hyatt 10, and naturally, the Makati Business Club types that are never far away from the power line just as the yellow media would be there to protect Noynoy and his family while they and their businesses continue to make hay while the Noynoy sun shines.
