Villar jumps to 1st in Pulse Asia survey
MANILA - Former Senate President Manuel Villar jumped to first pick for president in the latest Pulse Asia survey on Filipinos' preferences for the May 10, 2010 elections.
In its August 25 media release, Pulse Asia said one in four Filipinos (25%) would elect Villar as the country's next president, based on the survey it conducted from July 28 to August 10, 2009.
Former President Joseph Estrada was second at 19%, or 6% behind Villar.
Vice-President Noli de Castro was third at 16%.
Senators Francis 'Chiz' Escudero and Manuel 'Mar' Roxas were statistically tied at fourth with 12% and 11%, respectively.
The survey has a margin of error of plus/minus 2%.
Biggest gainers, losers
The biggest gainers in the survey were Villar, who gained 11 points from the May 2009 Pulse Asia survey, and Estrada, who gained 4 points from May.
The biggest losers from the May survey were Escudero, who dropped 5 points, de Castro (2 points), and Roxas (2 points).
In the May 2009 Pulse Asia survey, Villar was in a statistical tie for second place with Estrada and Roxas.
De Castro and Escudero were in a statistical tie for first place in the May 2009 survey.
In the July 28-August 10 survey, Senator Loren Legarda was fifth with 6%, while Makati City Mayor Jejomar Binay was sixth at 4% support.

Tailenders
Except for Vice President Noli de Castro, all candidates with links to the administration continued to lag behind.
Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chair Bayani Fernando got 1%, Senator Richard Gordon got 1%, while Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro registered 0.2% support from respondents.
Likewise, all so-called alternative bets, Pampanga Gov. Among Ed Panlilio (0.4%), John Carlos 'J.C.' de los Reyes (0.1%), and Nicanor 'Nick' Perlas (0%), were at the bottom of the pack.
Accomplishments and being pro-poor were the top two reasons for presidential preference of respondents.
"About one in four Filipinos (25%) is voting for his/her preferred presidential bet because of the candidate's many accomplishments. On the other hand, one in five (20%) Filipinos rationalized their choice of candidate based on the preferred bet's pro-poor orientation," Pulse Asia said.
The Pulse Asia survey had a sample of 1,800 representative adults (18 years old and above). It used face-to-face field interviews conducted from July 28 to August 10, 2009, with a nationwide margin of error of plus/minus 2%.
Villar Re-runs the Obsolete Run .....
The sudden surge of popularity in the 2010 presidential race marked the re-orientation of politics in the country today. As the Noynoy popularity climbs, the slides in the winnability of the other presidential candidates (i.e., Villar, Erap, Noli and Escudero) became so obvious at this stage.
Now, the effort to neutralize the damage and to minimize the loss for the losing presidential aspirants is visible in the media plays.
Very obvious is the re-run of an old and obsolete survey results like this one from the Villar camp. Anyway, what will the people think of being fed with obsolete survey for a Villar candidacy? SIRA ba kami?
The Filipinos are not crazy to bite.
Run, Villar, run - till your billions are GONE!
But our votes will all be for Noynoy, The Man!
VILLAR & C-5 FIASCO
Villar face your demons in the Senate hearing. Why be afraid? You don't have anything to hide, do you?. Clear your name and tell the Senate - WHAT YOU KNOW, WHEN DID YOU KNOW IT, WHO WERE INVOLVED and HOW MUCH MONEY DID YOU GET, IF ANY, ON THIS TRANSACTION.
Good Luck President Villar!
Mabuhay po kayo Sen. Manny Villar!
Sana manalo po kayo sa 2010 para magkaroon ng bagong pangalan at bagong anyo ang pulitika ng bansa!
Sawang-sawa na ang bansa sa pagluklok ng mga luma at tradisyonal na pulitiko sa pagkapangulo.
Tapos na ang panguluhang Aquino (1986-1992), ang panguluhang Estrada (1998-2001) at panguluhang Roxas (1946-1948).
Sa mga bagong mga pinuno, kayo po ang karapat-dapat na manalo! Good luck po at nawa'y mai-angat pa ng husto ang ating ekonomya ng panguluhang Villar!

Parang yung "U.S. Democratic Primaries in the Spring of 2008"....kung saan Obama was facing the "SUPPOSEDLY INEVITABLE WINNER" Hillary Clinton....at biglang naka-agaw ng "LEFT HOOK" si Obama at na-knock-out si Hillary.....
Question is.... ANO BA YUNG "LEFT HOOK"? na tumama kay Hillary....the OBVIOUS answer is "CAMPAIGN FUNDS"
------------
"Obama raked in more than $40million in March, spent just $30 million and had more than $50 million in the bank - with nearly no debt and $42 million to spend fighting Clinton. Clinton's debt is an unhealthy $10 million. She still had $31 million in cash on hand, but only $9million of that could be spent in the primaries.(BY MICHAEL McAULIFF

...and NOW knowing the pitiful state of "MENDICANCY"(PAMAMALIMOS-fruits of VERY POOR GOVERNANCE)in most of our country's 41,995 BARANGAYS especially in MINDANAO......THEY are very susceptible to "HAND-OUTS/LIMOS/BALATO/PA-ANGGI.....which I do completely understand is badly needed due to hunger, sickness, and state of desperation.
That's why the TRAPOS are "INVESTING" across the boards in that region on this early part of the election(pre-campaiging)capitalizing on the chaotic situations due to the ongoing conflicts(thanks..to "WAG THE DOG" scenario directors GMA/DND)
REGARDLESS OF OUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS...THERE IS ONE COMMON BOND BETWEEN "A HUMAN BEING TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING"...AND THAT IS....WE CAN NOT SURVIVE....OR LIVE....AS AN "INDIVIDUAL ISLAND"....WE NEED EACH OTHER FOR CO-EXISTENCE...
YUNG SAKIT NINYO SA MINDANAO AY SAKIT PO...NG BUONG PILIPINAS....KAYA SA BAWAT "PANDESAL/BALATO/PADULAS" NA TATANGGAPIN NATIN....HUWAG NAMAN PO NATIN IBENTA ANG BOTO FOR NEXT YEAR PARA SA MGA "BILYONARYO"....DAHIL KAYO RIN ANG PAGNANAKAWAN.....DAHIL KAILANGAN BAWIin ANG IBINALATO Sa INYO.....
...The other PAINFUL TRUTH is......PATI MGA APO NATIN(KUNG IPAPANGANAK MAN SILA) AY....MAGUGUTOM DIN DAHIL WALNG MAGIGING PAGBABAGO.....humaharap po tayo ngayon sa SANGANDAAN ng ATING BUHAY....HUWAG PO NATING IPAGKAIT ITO SA SUSUNOD NA SALIN-LAHI.....

Amen...
Amen, Cuiao, he he he... But in my view, the only thing that is being pre-conditioned by different political surveys (which are unfortunately funded by politicos) ARE THE MINDS OF THE CANDIDATES THEMSELVES. Let them eat the fruit of their own poisoned tree!
