I think Egyptians would be better off voting for Noamaan Gomaa. I know some people that think he's not very charismatic but I think he'd get the job done. I feel AlWafd is a strong enough party to rule and Noamaan Gomaa seems to be a good man. I defiaitely liked what he said about kicking the head of the worker uniouns, now that's something good to do. WTF is it with a unioun leader that is a millionaire anyways? Its also nice to see a guy that doesn't really like to be buttered up. While Mubarak usually seems quite happy when some one interupts his speechs and recites a poem or when some people start chanting for him, Gomaa has seemed quite intolerant of these kind of things. I would think some of the supporters would be a little dissapointed but I personally like that kind of man. Critisism s the kind of stuff you need to listen to, a pat on the back for doing something right is what you should look ahead to but buttering up I think is a no no.
While a lot think Ayman Nur is stronger than Gomaa, I don't really see it that way. Nur is obviousely more charismatic but would he make a better leader? Nur, I just read, was an hour and a half late for his conference in Alex. I think being punctual is a good personal trait that any candidate should show. I also don't believe AlGhad has the recourses yet to be a good strong ruling party.
So after the short memoried guys in the NDP forgot about it the papers talk about the guy Mubarak stopped to drink tea with in Behiera, turns out he isn't a regular peasant but an engineer. I kind of wondered because in the pictures with the president he looked too good to be a farmer, so I guess he just owns a farm.
I don't really see why some are calling for a boycott. Yeah, sure the gouvernment always tries to fix the results, but not voting gives them an even better chance to do it. Also, look at what happened with the referendum. The announced results were fictional but nobody did anything about but then there wasn't much to do. This time it does make a difference. If 10 million vote for anyone other than Mubarak and all the oposition runners get all of 7 million and nobodoy takes to the street in protest like Ukrain then we just deserve what happens to us. I want to vote but at the police office they gave me a weird reason on why I'm not listed. So come November 1st I'll go register and I'm not missing anymore elections.
Enough with being negative.
