Unfortunately it also gave the message that it was an endorsement, because it gave the impression of a "ranking". I thought many of those matrix items are "negotiables" anyway, except the rejection of the RH-bill.<br /><br />Was there a large turnout of OFWs?WillyJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12887272682669742570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267153215607598733.post-14956100465815284182010-05-03T19:55:41.411+08:002010-05-03T19:55:41.411+08:00Hi Willy, too bad I already cast my vote before I ...Hi Willy, too bad I already cast my vote before I saw this http://www.cbcpnews.com/?q=node/13125<br /><br />:(aeisielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162839319361870459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267153215607598733.post-55916565502347073352010-05-02T12:20:19.274+08:002010-05-02T12:20:19.274+08:00sunnyday,
