So, it's a four-way presidential race. Who will win?

Mr Tan has established a clear lead in the polls. An almost Zimbabwean lead.

You may have a president of any color you like, as long as it is Tan.

Earlier today I saw the headline Singaporeans will vote for Tan, but which one?

My first thought was that it was about choosing a mascot, like Wiki-tan.

It's a parliamentary system, so choosing the president is a little bit like that :P

I guess they can go ahead and order various inscriptions, letterhead, that sort of thing, before the election . . .

Reminds me of a movie...

A long time ago I watched some British comedy film, and a police inpsector was asking questions of some Cockney woman at the door of her home, with a bunch of screaming kids in the background. Hard to hear the inspector so she yells at the kids, then says, "Sorry, I apologize for the 'iatus." ("Hiatus" spoken in accent) He says, "The what?" She says again, "'iatus." Then he says, "Madam, so do I."


I always liked that.

I see the third one is currently ahead in your poll. Is that because, as De La Soul put it, three is the magic number? No more, no less.

Hmmm, I see that "Despite being considered as a frontrunner early on, George Yeo eventually decided not to run." Evidently a no-namer.

If you are seeing an apparent paradox, that means you are missing something.

Yeo mama is so fat, she don't fit between the Petronas Towers.

If Yeo mama sees you trying to hide yo Tan, she'll Tan yo hide.




Uh maybe after I digest my dinner, things may improve.
