And wad can they get out of that? Name recognition? The electorate votes for familiarity, and if last week's results are any indication, candidates with a mixture of youth and experience are popular with the electorate. I am not trivializing Eric Tan's experience as a politician, but precisely...

Well if u look at Myo's forum posts before, you can see where his/her allegiances lie. Since when did Myo felt sympathy for Eric before all of this? It is just plain sophistry taking hold, to home in on the sentiments of sympathy for Eric Tan and divide the opposition camp. Does he/she really...

If any of you saw that interview Eric Tan had with CNA, he was pretty explicit in staking his claim for the NCMP seat. I'm not surprise if by then he had gotten wind that the CEC favoured Gerald ahead of him, so he was strongly declaring his interest through the national media to pressure the...

Clinton, who is that guy on ur Avatar?

Re: SACKED JTC Staff BoyFriend Issues STRONG LETTER To Head Of Jurong Town Coucil.V G Agreed, there are too many question marks here, where got ppl accidentally print confidential document one?

It wasn't just the much publicized fallout between Dr Chee and Mr Chiam which mattered (and of course the MSM fully milking the situation), it also involved how there was so much disagreements and egocentric personalities within the party itself. This is where ur concept of a fluke victory comes...

If it is indeed the case that the RC and CCs have refused to allow the use of their facilities for Opposition MPS, those grassroots leaders who make such decisions ought to rethink their actions. It is not in their interest or the PAP's interest for that matter to be seen as depriving public...

In the light of WP's victory in Aljunied GRC last week, I couldn't help but think back to another milestone of yesteryear during the 1991 GE, where the SDP attained the largest number of opposition seats in parliament since 1963. That distinction has been overtaken by the WP's victory last week...

I dun think so its true la, my friends go City Harvest also vote opposition. Oh but I forgot, he go City Harvest sian Zha Bor one.. so not counted. haha.

Well, the politics of the three parties are rather different - with SDP taking a Socialist Democratic stance vis-a-vis the centrist outlook of the NSP and SPP. How are they going to reconcile these philosophical differences? Furthermore, there are so many political personalities within each...

they like democracy so much, ask them bring democracy to China first then come and talk.

The most important issue over the next five years as we look towards the 2016 Elections is not the election in itself. Rather, it is what happens to our Minister Mentor, and how the different factions within the PAP play their cards after he leaves the stage. This might have far reaching...

GMS hedge his bets wrongly la. If he would have taken Hazel and Tony, together with Nicole in Tampines, along with himself and one of the Tampines ppl, they might have stood a better chance. Have a feeling he he kept his team because this was the same team which has worked the ground for the...

hmm, could it be a spillover from Aljunied? (I dun think ur model accounts for that component) I thought one thing that was interesting abt the general WP strategy was that it contested seats which surrounded Aljunied GRC. While most of the resources are poured into the said GRC, there is bound...
