Sen. Loren Legarda, vice presidential running mate of movie actor Fernando Poe Jr., said the canvassing rules do not sanction Drilon’s simultaneous canvass idea.

Besides, she said, opening the ballot boxes and tabulating the votes at the same time would confuse lawmakers and the public watching the process on national television.

Hindi akalain ng mga tabloid reporter na maliit pala ang tingin ni Sen. Sotto sa mga taga-tabloid at ang gusto lamang nitong makausap ay ang mga taga-broadsheet at TV reporters.

Ito ay matapos bansagan ni Sotto ang mga tabloid bilang pang-pornong pahayagan.

Leandro Mendoza sa pamamagitan ng pag-ipit sa budget ng ahensiya nito hangga’t hindi niya sinisibak ang "sinungaling" na Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) director na si Albert Lim.

Ayon kay Sen. Sotto, sinungaling si Lim ng ipahayag nito na wala na siya sa Freedom to Fly Coalition na pinopondohan ng AGILE dahil hanggang ngayon ay bise presidente pa rin ito ng nasabing organisasyon na ang sinusulong ay interes ng mga dayuhan.

John Osmeña dared yesterday Senate Minority Leader Vicente Sotto III to reveal the names of the advisers of action star Fernando Poe Jr.

"No matter how good a man may be, he could not have the command of all information and resources needed to run the country," he said.

Sinabi ni Sen. Sotto, totoo na walang karanasan sa pulitika si FPJ pero hindi nangangahulugan na wala na itong kakayahan na pamunuan ang ating gobyerno sakaling magwagi sa 2004 presidential election.
