First as Leader of the Opposition because we expect the person occupying this constitutional post to provide us with an alternative to the government of the day. And God knows how easy this has been since July 2005. Besides a Leader of the Opposition is also a shadow Prime Minister: a strong contender to the topmost job of the land. Paul Berenger has certainly disqualified himself for both jobs by sitting on his hands and more importantly by desperately and openly begging for an alliance with the Labour Party.
And secondly as Leader of the MMM. He should have called it quits in 2005 when the Labour Party managed not only to throw the other two big parties out of power but also clipped a clean sweep in the municipal elections the same year. Why is he insisting on killing the MMM one more time?
