Tito Sotto: FPJ would have support my decision to join Team Arroyo

From GMA7:

Would Sotto feel comfortable campaigning with President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo in the administration’s kickoff campaign in Cebu? “I’ve already said what I’ve said before. If we will remain (concerned about) the past, we will never prosper…we will never be able to reconcile. In the future we can still reconcile…I have to respect the alliance…." Sotto replied in Filipino.

Sotto also dismissed the results of earlier surveys that placed him on the number two position when he was still under the opposition and down to number five when he joined NPC.

“I don’t believe in that. Surveys are not the Bible. That’s not accurate… I’ve always been on top five and that’s it….The true survey is on May 14."

Sotto said that if Poe were alive today, “he would support my decision".

“Wherever FPJ goes, he gets angry when somebody criticizes GMA (President Arroyo)….FPJ doesn’t want pouring scorn on people," added Sotto in Filipino.

How did you know that FPJ would have supported your decision? Mindreader ka ba? Did Susan Roces wholeheartedly support your decision to switch to the dark said? It's too bad, cuz if you stuck with the Opposition, you would have been in their senate slate (but probably not Tessie Oreta.)

And the other thing i don't understand is your reason for switching sides. When you were still with the opposition at inaayos pa ang coalition in the early stages, you gave the Wednesday group a hard time because they're not the "real oppositon." You were against kiko pangilinan's inclusion, kaya hindi mabuo buo kaagad ang coalition ng mga senate bets.

There was also resistance to Pangilinan, particularly from Sotto’s camp, but this, too, has been set aside, the source adds.

it has been set aside because all right, but you probably left the opposition because of this, didn't you?

i can understand why you would not want pangilinan on the opposition "unity ticket," but to later turn around and join the administration's own "unity ticket" is the biggest kalokohan and flipflop i've ever heard.

napaka-hardline mo nung nasa opposition ka. but now you're talking about "reconciliation" and "unity"? sorry tito, but me not buying it.

join maam Arroyo, tito? the person who cheated your bet. The person who ordered her dirty tricks dept. at the National Archives to manufacture fake documents to show na hindi pilipino si fpj. that arroyo? unbelievable.
