Of course you do not hate. I do not know you personally but it is obvious that you do not hate. People who hate do not search for the truth, like you do. Well done. You have taught us all a big lesson.]]></description>

The Nationalist Party IS inferior to Labour in terms of money and volunteers. That is what being the underdog means.

Eddie Fenech Adami did not start out as the charismatic leader he was to become later; it was actually a rather long process. 

As a matter of fact, during his first years as Leader of the Opposition, there were many supporters who would have preferred De Marco, as he was more fiery and his rhetoric inflammatory; basically Mintoff&#039;s counterpart as an orator.

In the long run Fenech Adami showed his stamina and charisma. His calm demeanour belied the fact that he was a tough and fearless politician who fought and won on his terms.

But that was then and this is now. History does not repeat itself in every little detail and one cannot copy the past.]]></description>
