Is Danton Remoto running too hurriedly?

No, I don't think so. 2010 is the ripe time for him to be a member of the Philippine Senate. I wish though that his blog texts are constructed well, as they don't make sense.


Who am I

"Filipino who has decided to stay here and run for senatorial elections in 2010. Aren't you tired yet of those super-mega-hyper politicians with nega work ethic and a zilch record? The 2010 elections will be for the young at heart and the brave of heart. I hope you will help and support us"

Unless he is showing his credentials as a maverick in all things including grammar, Danton should "run for Senate" rather than run for senatorial elections. Why would you run for elections? Or he may say "run for election."

A minor thing: Since this text follows "Who am I", then it should end with "I hope you will help and support me." (not us, otherwise, change the title to Who are We.)

In His Blog Title

This is the blog of Danton Remoto who is running as senator of the Republic of the Philippines in the May 2010 elections.

Again, if he is running AS senator, it means he is probably joining a marathon as part of the Senate. But if he is still seeking public office, then he should say "This is the blog of Danton Remoto who is running for senator..."

Danton FOR Senator is a political ambition.

Danton AS Senator, is portraying a role, essaying a character, like Maricel Soriano as Tandang Sora.
