Does Professor Ko surrender to KMT?/Carlos Pueblo

 Does Professor Ko surrender to KMT?/Carlos Pueblo

In the National Presidential Election of Taiwan, Does Professor Ko, aka KP, of the Taiwan People's Party, TPP, surrender to the Chinese Nationalist Party, KMT? I think not. I believe that is a way for the KMT Presidential candidate Mayor Hou of Shin Taipei City to get out of the race graciously. The consensus of the KMT bosses and Hou himself is this way. It is better for the field finally becoming one on one, Ko versus Lai of the Democratic Progressive Party, the incumbent National Vice President.

Ko is more personal charisma than both Hou and Lai. He dares to go to any places to deliver his thought and facing the questions and answers in any where universities, local gods temples, and televisions talk shows, etc. He can clearly express his political philosophy, his disciple, and his experience for 8 years Mayor of the capital city of Taipei. He is a graduate of Taiwan University Medical School and a surgeon as well as a clinical professor of that Medical Professor. I see no reasons for him to yield to Hou, a mayor of his second term at a suburban of Taipei.

Ko has been ahead of Hou in polls for quite some time and I don't see how he will be behind for the last two days of the poll in agreement. He will lead Hou in polls much more than needed points to convince everyone including Hou himself. As a matter of fact, Hou's wish is let him be on the ticket and he doesn't be bothered if he is a Vice President partner to Ko. Ko is very confident that if Hou is successful during the selection procedure, he will not win even if Ko is on the ticket as his Vice President partner. He also emphasize that TPP and KMT are two different idealism parties even if Hou win, the TPP supporters will not convert any votes to KMT. I can only see what Ko's yield is only not insisting his choice of Vice President partner. It's very interesting indeed.
