Throwing out the three controversial “common” candidates has if anything improved the chances of the United Nationalist Alliance because a streamlined team would work better in a campaign, according to some UNA senatorial candidates.
The tug-of-war between the United Nationalist Alliance and the Team PNoy administration slate over their so-called “common” candidates has finally ended with the UNA deciding to drop Senators Francis Escudero and Loren Legarda, and Grace Poe from its senatorial lineup.
President Aquino on Thursday shrugged off the junking of common senatorial candidates Loren Legarda, Francis Escudero and Grace Poe by the opposition United Nationalist Alliance (UNA).
In campaigns—like in love—there’s no substitute for the real thing.
Sen. Francis Escudero said Wednesday he did not know that common candidates who could not make it to the United Nationalist Alliance’s proclamation rally in Cebu on Tuesday could send representatives to the kick-off activity.
