Yesterday  Chiz Escudero, the youthful presidentiable, already announced his resignation to his party NPC and ask his supporters to give him time to think on what to do next. Some speculate that this is going to be a kamikazi to the young senator; by bolting out his party he may not have the needed resources and political machinery to run for president. 

Malacanang already announced, now that Chiz Escudero is already free as an eagle, is open to any possibility of Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro teaming up with Chiz Escudero. Thanks but no thanks,  Chiz already said he is closed long ago of making  any political alliance with the Arroyo’s administration which is nearing its end. NPC however still keeps  Loren as their standard bearer for the  vice presidency because of his political platform and is also open to make alliances with other camps. It is not clear if NPC will be supporting Gibo Teodoro and most likely will join forces with the president’s Lakas-Kampi-CMD. Noynoy Aquino on the other hand said, he want’s to talk also with his uncle Danding if he is interested to join the LP. Everything goes in politics as this say which is a reality more than a mystery.

So, it’s Chiz bidding goodbye now to Loren. Chiz just made himself clear, all he did is just to make him free to think, move, and make decisions without pressure from anybody. He is not in no way bitter to anyone including Loren his supposed to be running mate. Well and good, because in politics there is no permanent enemy as well as permanent friends. What is not possible today may be a reality tomorrow or anytime soon.

And speaking of possibility, has anyone ever thought that there’s going to be a Jobama/Chiz tandem should the Highest Court of the land rules, Erap is not longer eligible to run! Why not, Chiz is with the opposition, his heart and mind is with the opposition and there is no reason he could not run with the opposition. What is not clear however if Chiz is interested to run with Manny Villar (another mystery?). But in most likelihood, if Chiz really made a calculated move in his bolting out the NPC, he could be Erap’s substitute to run for president or Jobama (Makati Mayor Binay) taking Erap’s place and Chiz will be his running mate. If everything is possible in politics, isn’t this going to happen too?

 But Loren is used to being alone now without a partner, in personal life and in politics, and she has no problem running alone for vice-president under the NPC should the party decide not to adopt any presidential candidate.

Sige, magpapicture na lang muna tayo… say Chezzzzzzzzz!
