The May 14, 2007 Polls was a resounding vote of protest by the
people against a long line of unsettled issues; from the dubious

unresolved 2005 congressional inquiry on the Garci tapes, the
unsettling moves to change the Charter or declare a state of
emergency, and the two impeachment efforts to challenge Arroyo’s
legitimacy of rule.
They came, they sang and danced, and then they lost. It is an apt
epitaph for the phenomenon of actors, sports figures, and other
people of fame in fields other than politics who blithely entered
the 2007 elections.

against the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, the gains made in capturing

forces, permanent peace or the end of the conflict is nowhere in sight.
