It takes an alignment of the right forces but when it happens they will drive anyone from office. Everyday the public will hear how everything is his fault, from the economy to relations with China, to the weather, to how your breakfast tasted a bit off this morning. Public opinion is fickle, and the masses love to pillory the one they put on the pedestal just yesterday.lesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-57070733880305517862015-03-11T20:17:04.628+08:002015-03-11T20:17:04.628+08:00KMT is really worry about Ko.

New election is coming up and KMT is still in chaos. Kick dirt on Ko's face is fun for them but taking the eyes off the ball will cost KMT in the long run. Money is life blood of the politics. KMT need money to win election. As political wind changes, donors are also hedging their bet. No wonder Mr. Wang is putting on a brave face and claim that KMT can still win the election. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-43862214987284237212015-03-10T16:06:20.849+08:002015-03-10T16:06:20.849+08:00Scott Adams of Dilbert fame coined a word to descr...Scott Adams of Dilbert fame coined a word to describe this: http://blog.dilbert.com/post/109482303301/outragists-are-the-new-awful<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-70038888195823758382015-03-09T18:15:38.897+08:002015-03-09T18:15:38.897+08:00Of course some people are going to complain at the...Of course some people are going to complain at the implication that Chinese are foreigners here.
