Gordon-Garcia tandem 'electable'

By Ramon Tulfo - Philippine Daily Inquirer

Richard Gordon and Gwendolyn Garcia would make an excellent tandem in the 2010 presidential election.

The senator from Olongapo and the Cebu governor are sure winners—if they have the money.

Yes, Gordon is not in the surveys of possible presidential candidates at this time, but a lot of things can happen between now and 2010.

People who want order and discipline for the country—a prerequisite for economic progress—will vote for him.

After all, it was Gordon who taught Pinoys they were capable of discipline when drivers and motorists followed traffic rules at the Subic Bay Freeport complex during his term as head of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority.

As for Garcia, she’s much prettier than Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo who was elected vice president in 1998.

Garcia will win votes among the star-struck electorate because she is prettier than some Filipino actresses.

The Gordon-Garcia tandem’s biggest hitch is that it might run on the administration ticket. In which case, they would lose because people hate President Gloria like the plague.

This was evident in the last election when the administration ticket was trounced. Even the supposedly “sure winner,” popular actor, Cesar Montano, didn’t win.

If Gordon and Garcia are serious about running in 2010 they should start dissociating themselves from the President.
