I think that it is not just the tv ads that helps Trillanes. One thing is because people now realize that they need a more responsible politician and also can help reduce the corruption in the politics.

Ya! I agreed that TV ads greatly helps candidates in now adays campaign especially for Mr. Trillanes. I doubt its free but who pays this? Who are his financiers in their mutiny? Do you think Mr. Trillanes will be truly independent on his minds and principles without the influence by his financiers? Like Gringo, what happened?
He was elected, finished his term, elected again and finished his term, and elected again. They are not true reformist but a reformist turned politician, who is pro rich and hungry for his personal ambition. I hope Mr. Trillanes will be a true reformist, and labeled statesman. Thank you.

In response to your opinion about Padaca having a disability which hinders her ability to cheat, I see that as no reason to incapacitate her from cheating. If she doesn’t cheat, then maybe her leftist organizations can intimidate voters to side with her for fear of retaliations. Everyone can cheat whether you are disabled or not.
