• Moreno calls for Robredo's withdrawal, Lacson distances
• Robredo urges supporters to focus on campaign
• Why was Pacquiao a no-show at Manila Pen presscon?
Senate Minority Leader Franklin Drilon on Gonzales-Lacson-Moreno joint presscon: Calling for the withdrawal of a presidential candidate was not part of the agreement they signed
Sen. Drilon on joint presscon: VP candidate Sen. Tito Sotto was just invited as an observer, witness
Sen. Drilon on joint presscon: One of the participants hijacked the purposed of their statement and started attacking the vice president, that's why Sen. Ping Lacson disassociated himself
Sen. Drilon: Calls for withdrawal part of campaign reality
Sen. Drilon: Big groups switched to Leni Robredo. I can understand Isko Moreno's frustration, but it isn't correct.
Sen. Drilon: There's something surveys don't capture — the passion of the supporters of Leni Robredo. I've never seen this kind of support since the time of Cory Aquino in 1986.
Why was Pacquiao a no-show at Manila Pen presscon?
"I never doubted the wisdom of Manny Pacquiao. He wouldn't join a comedy show like that," says his running mate Rep. Lito Atienza.
Rep. Atienza: Sabi ni Pacquiao, "Bakit ako pupunta doon, naramdaman ko iba 'yung sinasabi at iba yung agenda." I knew it was going to be a Three Stooges show.
Rep. Atienza on joint presscon: Hindi si Marcos ang naging topic eh. It was Leni.
Rep. Atienza: The tandems aren't attracting popular support
Rep. Atienza: I chose the best available candidate, Manny Pacquiao. The whole world admires this man. Ipagpapalit ba natin siya sa hindi nagaral, hindi nagbabayad ng buwis? Bakit tayo nasiraan ng ulo?
Rep. Atienza: Saan tayo mapupunta kayo Bongbong Marcos? Nowhere
