If you're reading this coming in from the Halloween holidays, let me tell you this. If you thought Speaker Joe de Venecia will no longer be around, either you are dead, or just dead wrong. While you were away, the presidential security guard (PSG) was able to thwart another Palace coup. By the dead asking why she had not joined them as she had promised years ago.
The dead but not buried.
After all, the dead represent the largest constituency in Philipine politics.

Flying voters still alive?
Gosh -- why isn't the govt doing something about putting comelec list in order? The one right that the living, rich or poor have alike is being thrased.
Philippines has a long way to go.

In high school our newspaper's press was along Edsa in Caloocan. One time one of the employees pointed to a big tall stack of paper that reached almost to the ceiling and told me that was how the dead were going to vote in the coming elections. The press was called DM Press (for Diosdado Macapagal). But they were printing for Marcos that year, 1969. I didn't have any idea what he was talking about till much later...
Dean,
Very perceptive press employee. Let me share this ghost of story.http://philippineonions.wordpress.com/2007/10/31/dead-men-talking/
