Auntie Charo's Soapbox

Yup, he sure was....absent during that chapter....cuz as reported by Marianas Variety in yesterday's paper, it seems Mr. G. Santos advised people at GCC that he was going to be the running mate of one Kaleo Moylan......way ahead of Kaleo's announcement that he was running for governor......you know, he's still got that sly, Mona Lisa smile like, I'm not sure but I'll tell you when I am...., or when the time's right....kinda like Robert Underwood and Frank Aguon, every body says they're running but the two of them.....so....was this staged so that Kaleo didn't have to say it and it's a way to have it announced? If it wasn't, will the false start upset Kaleo because it's usually announced with both parties together with supporters and champagne et cetera?
Anyway.....my rumor mill was on target.....and I still have no idea who Mr. Santos is, just that he does a lot of work for the republicrats and is a good worker ant and is good to have on your side so it seems Kaleo's picked a good running mate, even if he lets the cat out of the bag way too soon.....heard Patty Arroyo who seemed knowledgeable about the republicans that there's absolutely no way that there would be a three-way race within the republican party....so either her cousin Felix Camacho is going to bow out of the race(no, they're no way that's going to happen) or, Eddie Calvo's going to do the party a favor and sit this one out....he's a young man and there's lots of time for him to become governor down the line....what's more, he can remain a senator and become a speaker should the republicans remain its majority....anyway, Arroyo didn't say which of the two would be doing the sacrificial thing to save the party.....actually, a two way race splits the party and can easily give the votes to the democrats....one has only to review recent history....If we want a republican governor, we should run one set of candidates....two sets would divide the voters. Those that lose will jump to the democrat side and will vote democrat after the election....this is how this administration got elected.
Election will be murky either way what with the Tiyan evictions and Gill subdivisions and the problems with where we're going to put that dump....it'll be surprising if anyone's talking to anybody by November, let along listening to those phony promises the politicians will be making to get elected! Anyway, Mr. Santos, welcome to the playing field!
