Edu Manzano is Gibo's running mate

It came all as a surprise to everyone, even to former Optical Media Board head, Edu Manzano. Edu is the running mate of  Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro. It was reported earlier that Edu Manzano will run for the senatorial bid under Erap ticket. But things had changed dramatically. Rumors came that Vilma Santos or Bong Revilla will be the possible running mate of Gibo. Now officially, it is Edu Manzano, as Vice President.
A lot of people have been saying that Edu Manzano as Gibo's running mate is a wrong choice. Having Manzano seemed to be a desperate move of the administration, since none of those who have been courted, wanted to  run as VP. Ronaldo Puno, who backed out of the VP race had stated that having Manzano was a right move. Edu Manzano is not considered a neophyte in the political arena since he had served as Vice Mayor of Makati.
However, Manzano had lost to incumbent Mayor Jejomar Binay in the 2001 mayoral race. ........
