I HAVE high hopes that come 2016, when we elect a new president, a new brand of politics will also be ushered in. Vice President Jojo Binay is the frontrunner in this presidential race which started even before it began and while brickbats are continuously thrown at him in relation to the over-priced, world-class parking building, it seems like he remains to be the candidate to beat as of today. Surprisingly, those who are at it in the Senate hearings went down in the latest survey rankings, and another didn’t move at all.

VP Binay recently launched a new “old” party UNA. Formerly just an alliance, it is now a Comelec registered political party with support from Erap’s Partido ng Masang Pilipino. Does that mean that it is going to be a Binay-Jinggoy come 2016? Well, just like what Atty. JV Baustita said in an interview, to early to tell. But what is certain is that they will filter all those who wish to join the new party of opportunists and politicians who will now make a beeline to be included in UNA. Really now! With that standard, very few will be left to choose from.
