“Ocampo Swindled His Senatorial Debut”
Nacionalista Party having been tipped –off by a meager 2 million vote is a sight for sore eyes. Bayan Muna’s Satur Ocampo, who have dumped his militant life to gain higher political post, was just the right ingredient to deliberately hoodwink the NP Party to a sham “command vote” coming from Bayan Muna members. In fact, instead of solidifying a voting bloc Ocampo with his lapses of judgment had “divided” BM’s support source. Thus, this nails the rumors true about Ocampo having being thrown-out from BM on grounds of his inconsistent stand against TRAPOs.
But obviously the mutiny in Bayan Muna remains under the rug as NP stalwarts take in Ocampo with a “leverage” that is far from “true”. Besides, how can Ocampo keep his “control” over BM when it was known to most that he had sworn to “sell” it for a coveted senate seat? The consecutive terms in the Lower House surely made a mad man out of Ocampo. It enticed him to salivate over higher positions that require dumping his former comrades and actually be in servitude to TRAPOs he formerly disliked.
Communist maneuvering includes crude sacrifices. This explains why a series of purging or cleansing massacres have been executed under the 40-year old CPP-NPA. Ocampo having been one of the identified CPP leaders who validated and ordered the riddling mass killing is presumably strong enough to make the same tyrant judgment within BM. Imposing a straight vote for Villar is somewhat part of this manipulative nature of Ocampo. That is, despite the resistance of more than half of BM’s members.
Sooner or later, the Villar-Ocampo tie up will be relegated a political sham dished out to simply gather votes enough to get either of them on the political wheel. The 2 million votes that seemingly got these two together would also be the source of their early electioneering’s downfall. Inevitably, these 2 million voters would sound the gong against the NP-MAKABAYAN (Makabayang Koalisyon ng Mamamayan) that involved a discrete vote buying of Sen. Villar. MAKABAYAN that is pushing the campaign of Ocampo is nonetheless behind the collusion and is quite the one forcing both camps to make use of the 2 million command votes coming from various militant groups like Bayan Muna.
Regrettably, the renowned NP is easily taken for a ride after its standard bearer grew weary of his evocative graft inquiries. The desperation of Villar had to be NP’s Achilles’ heel at this point. This then runs positively to the aims of Ocampo, who by now had been colluding from one Opposition TRAPO to the next in order to muster a formidable bloc of votes that could help him bag a seat in the senate. These two (Ocampo and Villar) are much interested in serving their “best” interest. That is, to include them ignoring the after effects of their uncalled for “friendship”. Perhaps, this plainly explicates how dirty politics works in the first place. For example, a self-proclaimed militant who bent his resolve against TRAPOs in order to get elected, and that of a TRAPO who embraced a staunch critic he would not entirely trust for the sake of scanty vote leverage.
