  • Credibility...

    Just to prove that they all have skeltons in the closet and pasts that they would rather bury... nobaddy have clean hands here. Defending one side based solely on the past is to use blinker vision.

    Can anyone explain how overnight the safest JLP constituency became the staunchest PNP stronghold???? Dont pull any punches now...please give the story of SW St. Andrew, pre and post 1976! Did the people magically change or were they "cleansed"???

    Who can deny that there was political cleansing, on both sides? I thought we had solemnly vowed not to go back to the past? Are you seaga-ing us here, Willi?

    (Don't you just hate what the forum does to tables?)

      I agree,

      I was using it as a point to show that the JLP credibility argument was a red herring!!!!

      The only credibilty that I ascribe any weight to now is the cogency and elegance of plans. That said,the PNP has to try harder because the recnt past has not been so good, so they have to show how they plan to improve.

      The best aspects of BG's plans now are the goverance reform suggestions. Tiad a di weekly scandals.

      From what I hear, and I acknowledge its just a rumour, Bruce have more scandal ready to buss when the time is right to get maximum effect!

        What about Seaga's constituency?
        Willi: Garrisons are garrisons because one side 'cleansed' the constituency.
        "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
