Manny Villar must be salivating at the prospect of a "tactical alliance" with left wing politicians like Satur Ocampo and Liza Maza. Fiery statements from this group indicate that they intend to keep the "memories of the Hacienda Luisita massacre alive." That's indeed a very damning issue against Noynoy Aquino.
Villar, with his deep pockets, can now buy high-caliber politicians to campaign for him and endorse him to left-leaning sectors of the electorate with a pleasant bonus - a legitimate issue against Noynoy! Such are the vagaries of Philippine politics where money can buy just about anything, including formerly principled and idealistic people, even whole movements!
This also gives a whole new meaning and perspective to "tactical alliance."
