Noynoy declares: Mar Roxas is his only Vice President
Liberal Party candidate for President, Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III, assured the people yesterday that Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II is his only running mate.
“Gusto ko iliwanag, sa akin kandidato ko kaisa-isa kong partner sa laban na ito, si Mar, dahil sigurado akong ipagpatuloy niya kung sakaling di ko kayanin (I want to make it clear that I have only one candidate and one partner in this fight, and that is Mar, because I am certain he will finish what I have begun),” he said.
Aquino issued the statement amid speculation that there is a growing support for an Aquino tandem with Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay, the vice presidential bet of Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino.
Sen. Francis Escudero, who is also supporting the Aquino campaign, had endorsed Binay, the running mate of PMP standard-bearer former President Joseph Estrada.

PMP accuses Villar of being a copycat
Pwersa ng Masang Pilipino spokesman Ralph Calinisan accused Nacionalista Party presidential bet Sen. Manny Villar’s campaign of copying a campaign ad of Argentinean presidential hopeful Ricardo Hipolito Lopez Murphy.
Calinisan said, “The concept, visual cues and even the execution are identical.There is no other way to describe Sen. Villar’s but a cheap rip-off of the original.”
The ad features numerous phrases read sequentially, but when subsequently read in reverse, the phrases convey a different meaning. The viewer’s attention is guided by a bar that highlights the current phrase being read.
“He (Villar) even chose orange as his official campaign color, obviously mimicking President Joseph Estrada who has been using orange as his official campaign color for more than 20 years,” Calinisan added.
