So question, do you think our PM has made a brilliant move? or a dumb one?

Way I see it he's thinking that the opposition OR LACK THEREOF won't be able to stop their in-fighting quickly enough to mount a proper alternative political party hence him winning AGAIN.

Wildcard... dooks and cams SMART enough to KNOW that manning thinks this and put up a nice front of disunity to lure him into a false sense of security and now that he announce BOOM BANG all is love and the opposition come out to mount the offense this county SO badly needs... of couse its a pipe dread to think he'll have to tuck tail and run like a hart...

 the rumor is that the PNM itself wants manning gone , but if he calls an election they have no choice but to support him . It may be out of spite : if he cant have government , nobody in the PNM can.. or he's just taking a large chance of loss over a sure chance of being removed by his own party.

best we form a party and run for government. With the amount of Grand Theft Auto and Battlefield experience we have, should be easy to deal with crime.

First order of business would be to establish a new Ministry of Gaming and Gaming Industries.

Sounds good to me, Wyatt. Give me the Fighting Division of that Ministry and I'll rule with a Tekken  i.e. Iron Fist.

*Ya see wat i did dere?* :sassy:


My guess is something WORSE than UDeCOTT happened and he wants elections to be over with before de mark buss.

It's barely been three years since the last election. Not that I'd want to endure the PNM's epic fail any longer, but he shouldn't be allowed to call them before four years are up. Right now, this is rubbing off on me as "my opponents are barely ready and if they're allowed any more time, they might be an actual threat-BOOP! ELECTIONS."

NAh Neo, he definitely should be allowed to call it before the four years are up.
Its a clause built into the constitution to give the people what they want.
IF you vote a party in and they do a 180 and go bat*&^* crazy and really f&*^&*^ up de country. The people can lean on the PM to call early elections
of course thats not what happened, but its very good that the ability to do this exist.

In fact, i wish they would call elections every year
so every year would be an election year
and roads go get pave and man go get water and place go get clean
basically a performance review that determines whether or not they stay in power.

This is a well-thoughtout strategy but it shows us that one thing is certain; Patrick Manning worships satan. Either that or his cognitive dissonance is massive and he is far more interested in himself then he is in the country. I can only hope that some members of the PNM would grow a spine and stop his mad reign.
What can you do to end the hunger?
It's no surprise that many will die with the coming shortage of food
When there is no grain to feed the butchered cows
When there is nothing to feed yourselves...
Then you will see that money can't be eaten.

'Cognitive dissonance' indeed.

I think you might just be right about that one.

Actually, the way I see it now is that he called elections to head off the No Confidence motion that would've been debated had Par-LIAR-ment not been dissolved. He probably figured that he'd have a better shot at winning elections than surving the motion in the face of:

UDeCOTT (Nuff said.)
WASA's epic failure (Who TF is surrounded by water and STILL undergoes a MC DROUGHT?)
WASA scandal (In the midst of the aformentioned drought, ppl using potable water to fill a SWIMMING POOL!)
Gary C. H unt's $2M flag idea. (You mean his middle name isn't  "Chester"? My bad.)
Turning on Keith Rowley (Who was vindicated when de Calder Hart mark buss, Rowley - 1, Manning - 0.)

So... When it's a pick between elections knowing T&T's retarded system and even more retarded voting populus and a No Confidence motion knowing the ammo stockpiled and aimed at you, Manning made the smartest choice: Go for the possible win, not the definite loss.

I think he would have survived the no confidence motion, after all the govt still outnumbers the opposition by a good margin.  Word is that Kamla was gonna buss some files on the Calder Hart/Manning connection in the house where they can speak without getting sued. I'm not sure what Manning's gameplan is but he thinks that he can win.

If anything the UNC/COP will join forces with UNC reps fighting the normal strongholds, and COP reps fighting Marginals/PNM Strongholds.
