Sounding as the perfect 'cry-cry-baby', he vented frustration- and a sense of defeat-, feeling what others-, for decades have been going through at the hand of the DP-party .
Being 'outspent', by a party without any manifesto-,but with a very deep 'war-chest' to 'buy' votes.
It was 'delightful' hearing the man, whose 'Lord' is MONEY, now talk about the DP's 'manifesto' and blame the UP of Theo for 'splashing-around- too much-cash', without a real message.
All of sudden the DP-party-, which in fact has the 'copyright' on how to run a corrupt Government- and to buy your way into Government, wants-, oh yes....campaign-reform.
Wattating.
Talking about 'multiple standards'-, crocodile-tears-, opportunism and the like.
It appears that the DP-, just like many others-, including the TODAY-newspaper, is having a very strange- and uncanny 'premonition', that this time around, 'splashing-the-cash-to-buy-your-votes', might be very risky, to say the least.
Of course-, who would not 'take the 'cash' ?
But-, will very 'cash-taker' now also return the 'favor' as expected ?
That is the million dollar question.
That is a growing- and very unsettling fear within the large parties, such as the DP-, the NA- and the UP.
Clearly-, large bill-boards- and thousands of flags, might look victorious, but what of that will not really work ?
As 'crazy' as this might new sound, just 'mark my words'- or 'read my lips'.
The time might not be too distant-, that having lots of 'cash-to-splash'- and flags- and posters to show off with-, post might be simple seen as a clear 'motion of non-confidence' .
Consequently-, we might not be too far away-, that parties will no longer want to embarass themselves and look like absolutely empty-headed fools :-! :-! :-! by having all these ridiculously extravagant paraphernalia, polluting the environment.
Meanwhile-, with so many people suffering hardships, who knows what beautiful clothing could be made out of these flags- and what homes and shelters out of the plywood bill-boards.
Food for thought.
