In his introduction, Lopez described Villar, Nacionalista Party standard-bearer, as a “self-made tycoon, former Speaker and Senate President, and former future President, probably.”The truth kind of stings doesn't it? It is biased, yes, The fair thing to do would be to remind people that Erap drove the country to the ground, Villar has questionable ethics for a man claiming to be the hope of this nation, and Gibo might just be a cover for Arroyo. But there is no reason for Lopez to stop saying that in Noynoy's three-term tenure as a congressman, his greatest accomplishment was getting re-elected 3 times.
Lopez also fawned over Aquino’s cousin, Lakas-Kampi standard-bearer Gilbert Teodoro Jr., whom he repeatedly praised as a bar topnotcher.
By contrast, Lopez was uninspired in his introduction of Aquino, calling him a man with a good pedigree, grandson of a national hero, son of national heroes—former President (Corazon) Aquino and slain opposition Sen. Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr.—congressman for nine years, and senator for three years.
“He will tell us what he is going to do,” Lopez said.
Lopez added that Aquino was somebody known for his “imagination.” He called deposed President Joseph Estrada “a man of action.”
