Opposition campaigns in their desperate hours

Money continues to flow into a lost cause | Tricia Robredo appeals to supporters for decency | Infantile Yellowtard campaign messaging insults voters

Opposition “leader” Leni Robredo seems to be succeeding at one thing — keeping the money flowing into what is effectively a lost cause. Her rallies have so far attracted impressive numbers and attest to the vastly-improved organisational chops of Team Robredo. The fact is, however, even a crowd of 200,000 (or so they say) showing up at a rally does not in any way indicate an improvement in conversion rates. It just means that supporters — not converts — are showing up.
