I was in the mall looking for porcelain tile design when I heard the news about Senator Mar Roxas quitting his presidential bid to give way for Noynoy Aquino. I overheard someone say, “Will Korina (Sanchez) back out from her wedding to Mar now that Noynoy has been thrust to the presidential limelight?”
Mar Roxas is one of the finest senators we have. Everyone knows him as Mister Palengke, which happens to be true with his mom, Judy Araneta-Roxas, managing the Farmer’s Market in Cubao. Nonoy Aquino was a little bit in the shadows until Cory passed away that his parents’ magic seemed to have rubbed on him. Noynoy is the Aquino’s legacy to this ailing nation and somehow the people’s hope rests on him.
I have the feeling that Noynoy, despite strong contenders like Villar, will eventually make it.
