“Davis: PLP will win 30 seats – Deputy PM predicts current government will increase majority” – The Tribune

Excerpt from this article; “DEPUTY Prime Minister Philip ‘Brave’ Davis predicted yesterday that the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) will win 30 seats in the upcoming general election and the Free National Movement (FNM) will win nine.

In an interview on ‘Darold Miller Live’, Mr. Davis told radio show’s host the Bahamian people know it is too ‘risky’ to put the country in the hands of the FNM and its leader Dr. Hubert Minnis – who he described as being incompetent.

Mr. Davis also questioned whether Dr. Minnis would remain leader of the FNM if he were to become successful in becoming the nation’s leader.”

First we have Prime Minister Perry Christie saying that despite the numerous failings of the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) government, the people will still vote them back in and now we have Deputy Prime Minister, Philip Davis saying that they are assured to win 30 seats out of a possible 39 seats.  It is alright to make bold statements in order to garner confidence in your party and to rally your troops but there is a point where such bold statements can only be seen for what they are; statements of delusional, tired and confused men.

Deputy Prime Minister goes on to say in his delusional diatribe; “When you wake a sleeping giant called the PLP and this machinery and when we get our message out, I think the Bahamian people will listen to us and see what we have to done and appreciate it is too risky to interrupt where we are headed as a country and put it in the hands of who?”

Exactly where are we headed as a country Mr. Deputy Prime Minister; exactly what you done or are doing that cannot be interrupted?  The economy is on the decline, unemployment is at an unprecedented high, crime is a problem that not only plagues us nationally but also internationally and the government of the day has the country living in a shadow; so the best thing right now is for someone to come along and break this downward spiral that we are on; interrupt it and save this country from a government that has done little to nothing to better the lives of its citizens.

The Deputy Prime Minister makes the statement of ‘when you wake the sleeping giant’……it is a pity that someone did not wake the PLP up over the past five years, as they have been in a deep slumber for the past five years, while the country that they were elected to govern has being going to ‘hell in a hand basket’.

So indeed, slumber on, as soon and very soon you will have no more responsibilities and be able to sleep the rest of your days away.

The Progressive Liberal Party fails for one reason, it is their nature.
