I had an interesting conversation with a taxi cab driver last Friday (May 31, 2013).
He said that from his observations the most likely contenders against Binay will be Bongbong Marcos and former President Erap Estrada.
Do you agree?
Erap said he will only be a one-term Mayor of Manila.  So does it makes sense then to think he might be aiming for another post?  And why not the presidency?  He has a strong reason to do so as he needs to prove something due to that impeachment proceedings against him when he was President that resulted in EDSA 2.
On the other hand Bongbong Marcos could be a dark horse.  The taxi driver said Bongbong is only among the very few who has enough “asim” (charisma) to give a good fight to Binay.
