From all indications and from reliable sources in the Aquino-Roxas camp, defeated vice presidential candidate Mar Roxas has gotten his wish that no Cabinet position be given to Vice President-elect Jejomar Binay who received a mandate to govern from close to 15 million voters. So be it. Vice President Binay can now discharge the equally important job of being the leader of a loyal but critical opposition. As P-Noy original defender Billy Esposo observed in his Philippine Star column yesterday: “We must be alarmed over this developing rift between the President-elect and Vice President-elect because of the sensitivities of defeated P-Noy runningmate, Mar Roxas. If it is important for P-Noy to attain the cooperation of his presidential rivals, then it is imperative that his vice president — Jojo Binay (V-Nay) — does not become the rallying point of the new opposition”... “It is one thing to give or not to give V-Nay the DILG (Department of the Interior and Local Government) portfolio. It is political suicide to vilify V-Nay and transform him into an opposition rallying point.” Source: The Daily Tribune URL: http://www.tribuneonline.org/commentary/20100623com4.html |
