sheeprunner12 8 years, 9 months ago on Tennyson Wells vows to support rival campaign in long island

Tenny Wells is a greedy, hoggish man who has NO good track record in Long Island .......... Loretta will beat him in Long Island .......... the only person who might win in Long Island other than the FNM candidate is a present local government official ....... not Rollins either

Emac 8 years, 9 months ago on Tennyson Wells vows to support rival campaign in long island

" I think of the country." BS! Tennyson Wells is one of those old greedy used to be politicians, who still craves attention. During his tenure as a minister of the government, Wells can speak of nothing that he has done to benefit the Bahamas. Quite frankly, he and the kind only seek public office to feed of the fat of the land, so to speak. As Sting song goes,"The more they get, the more they want" As insensitive as this may sound, these old wicked creatures need to hurry hit the bucket so that the Bahamas can breathe and new talents can be recognized.

Sadly, I think that no matter who wins the party is forever fractured.

That is such an arrogant and assified position to take. If they leave the FNM now, the FNM would not even be the opposition anymore...it would be relegated to a third party status. He and the FNM need to focus on reconciliation and healing instead of driving this division agenda.

Well_mudda_take_sic 8 years, 9 months ago on F.N.M. Convention Day Three – as it happened

If Minnis is unable to lead a unified political party by commanding the respect of the vast majority of its current members and past supporters, there's no way in hell he'll be able to lead our country. Minnis wreaks of corruption and incompetence and is an utter embarrassment for many Bahamians who were for many years die hard supporters and financial backers of the FNM, but have since abandoned the party because of Minnis. If it were not for Minnis, Perry Christie and the PLP would be decimated in the next general election. But sadly, Minnis alone will be singularly responsible for handing the corrupt Christie-led PLP government another five year term. Minnis has from day one of his assuming the leadership of the opposition and the FNM party itself been all about putting himself and his own interests above the interests of the country. His inflated ego and insatiable hunger for power has him totally oblivious to his serious limitations as a politician and leader; he simply cannot understand and fathom that he is so disliked by so many many Bahamians no matter what their party affiliation may have been historically.

Only the delegates (stacked in his favour) want Minnis. Idiots don't realize that his leadership won't guarantee a win at the polls. So many people in the VOTING public are turned off because he's at the helm and lots of FNM's will switch after this.

All I'll say is good luck. He may win the battle but not the war. In my most sarcastic voice, "PLP all the way!"

DillyTree 8 years, 9 months ago on Minnis: I'll support Loretta as Long Island candidate

When Dr. Minnis has made the FNM party go against the very beliefs, tenets and philosophies the founding fathers wanted for the FNM, then it's no longer the same party. Minnis has made the once great FNM into a splinter group of the PLP. That I want no part of.

So don't talk to me about following the leader of the party. It's no longer the FNM.

I don't understand why people hold a grudge against Hubert Ingraham for resigning, the loss at the polls was a MASSIVE vote of no confidence by the Bahamian people. In our system of governance a resignation was almost required. I would have liked it if he stayed to avoid this huge mess today but I don't fault him for resigning.

NassauBoy77 8 years, 9 months ago on Do you think Richard Lightbourn should resign over his sterilisation comments?

These female PLP MPs are a joke!!! What happened when Leslie Miller made the comment in regard to physically abusing women in the HOA? They laughed at it and did not stand up for women then. Why the sudden change?

Economist 8 years, 9 months ago on Turnquest asks why Carnival report has not been released

"All talk and no action" is the FNM party slogan.

Turnquest never targets an individual, he all was speaks in vague terms. That way he never has to face anyone down. It also means that no one has to respond to his comments.

Be a man and call someone out on Carnival

He needs his head examined to run in Long Island. They will run him out so fast his head will spin. Just ask the good people of his current district how they feel about him!

Stapedius 8 years, 9 months ago on Rollins ‘to run as independent candidate in Long Island’

An opportunist and political parasite. Before joining the PLP or FNM this was a man who bad mouthed them left and right while leader of the NDP. He got a small role as Gaming board chairman in the plp administration and when things didn't go how he expected he jumped ship. Then not even two months in the FNM he opened his big mouth and criticised a party that opened their arms to him. All the while being a media muppet his constituency has numerous concerns yet to be addressed. He really should run away from there because being an independent there he will get a cut a$%. Rollins wants to blame everyone else but hasn't been a very good representative for the people in his community. It's easy to sit back and criticise others but what has he really achieved but to promote himself as a loudmouth, an empty vessel? Election can't come soon enough for us to send many of these people into a political abyss. PLP, FNM and inbetween, we need a purge of this racket.
