					<description><![CDATA[@ Kenneth Spiteri
you certainly don&#039;t hold your punches Ken. True, we don&#039;t want idiots but
Labour wants JM
Nationalists would love that so they can,get their teeth into his profile.
But..........Malta needs a George Abela, even if he is on the more mature side, that brings much experience to a difficult position. And you need that to undo all the harm the previous administration did to the MLP.
But in the end its going to be a tough battle beating an experienced Gonzi who&#039;ll probably use these five years to clean up some doubtful elements of the PN, and has 855 million euros to spend on the infrastrucure. That is tough to beat.]]></description>

For your information I first posted here well before Gerald Fenech started to post! In fact I happened to noticed him around some weeks after the election - I knew he had worked with Smash and had a program there.

So no, I have no connection with Gerald and don&#039;t know him personally but i&#039;m positive that he started to post here well after I started doing so, which was one week before the election.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@ Daphne

I would suggest going slow on these very helpful hints to the Labour party! I mean: God forbid they could elect the RIGHT person!

Re Dr Marlene Pullicino - well if Labour candidates were all as open-minded as her (as in they don&#039;t mind party-switching when the party is truly reasoning from it&#039;s wrong end) I think I might become a floating voter after all!  Honestly, she is the only Labour candidate I admire, and not only because she is an exceptionally good dentist.]]></description>
