Paderanga-Emano ticket for Mis. Or.
Table Talk By JAY VALLESER Updated October 14, 2009 12:00 AM

GINGOOGNON is rabid in its support for one of its own who dares to run for any political posts outside the city. Data from electoral battles in the past can easily prove the hypothesis that Gigoognons never abandon anyone from that city, never mind what the outcome at the end might be. Gingoog forever win or lose!
   
That is why they were titillated with the thought of lawyer Michael Paderanga running for governor under the PaDayon banner of future Mayor Dongkoy Emano. This came after Cong. Bambi made a more-or-less final decision to seek for reelection rather than face Gov. Oca Moreno; and, Board Member Pedro Unabia showed a weak response even among die hard fans of the Emanos.
   
Furthermore, since the main interest and concern of Unabia is to protect his business he would rather go for a seat in congress than in the province. Unabia is chicken shit that he might be forced to come up with an environmental clearance certificates for his business that the best way to run around that rule is buy his way to Congress.
   
As the day comes closer for the filing of certificates of candidacy, the PaDayon is reportedly trying to woe Atty. Paderanga to be its standard bearer for the province. The Paderanga family is reportedly willing to bankroll the candidacy of the younger Paderanga with a starting capital of P20 million. But here’s the catch.
  
The elder Paderanga, Miguel, is already wise enough to the maneuvering and the political savvy of future Mayor Dongkoy. So, after assuring the PaDayon big boss, that the Paderangas can fund and win an election, the elder (Miguel) sought a condition - that Atty. Nadia Emano run as Michael’s vice governor.
   
The Paderangas believe that with a Paderanga-Emano ticket, this will guarantee better success for Michael and their P20 million a wise investment. With Atty. Nadia on the ticket this will minimize the chances of having the Paderangas played as pawn for the interests of PaDayon and whoever calls the shots in that party.
   
Miguel also theorized that future Mayor Dogkoy being a shoo-in here in Cagayan de Oro, will have all the time to campaign for the province with the honor and prestige of the Emanos at stake. Counting possible votes, Miguel theorized that from Gingoog City alone the Paderanga-Emano team could easily get a lead of 8,000 over any rivals.
   
The Uyguangcos of Medina, poultry raisers of Unabia and the bailiwick of Tagoloan-Villa-Claveria can also give a lead of 3,000 votes more. Remember, that the Paderangas and Calingins are relatives.
   
“Kay kun dili gud nakataya ang pamilya Emano sa line-up, basin og malawog kita sa tirong!” a Paderanga supporter was heard saying.
