                    [Summary] => CEBU CITY — The Koalisyon ng Nagkakaisang Pilipino is eyeing votes from the El Shaddai and Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC), two influential religious groups that may provide swing votes for KNP standard-bearer Fernando Poe Jr.


"I don’t know if they would be swing votes or not, but definitely the INC vote cannot be discounted because it’s a solid bloc," KNP media bureau chief Rod Reyes told reporters here yesterday.


Candidates never fail to woo the leaders of the INC and El Shaddai, which claim to have 10 million members between themselves.

But a warning to the plotters from President Arroyo herself, with the embattled Chief Justice chiming in about military intervention, could rattle the markets further this coming week and send embassy personnel scrambling to revise travel advisories on the Philippines. With national leaders like these, who needs destabilizers?
