What/Who will be FPM's major opponent(s) in the 2009 elections? (You can vote for more than one option)

[punkgirlie16]

batrak wa ouwet wa kataib. the battle has degenerated into a purely sectarian game over christian representation.

[Addoun Kelloun]

Media and False propaganada in my opinion, for the simple reason you keep on telling people a lie(s) day after day and as time goes on they will start believing it so FPM has to work hard on the media campain !

[Red Phoenix]

all of them will play a detrimental role, except the MoU, it's the best thing that happened to this trashbin of a spittoon country since forever really.

but who cares, all the combined hordes of trashy hell and pompous heaven can come racing against fpm for all i care in the 2009 elections but this ain't gonna change the stance of fpm. my vote for them is as implacable as a stupid's man admiration for a mass murderer like samir mgeagea. u get served what u deal with in this country.
and i for one ain't dealing with saints nor geniuses..

THIS IS SPARTAN FPM we are talking about here..
but as some have previously stated, the FPM SPARTANS SHOULD AWAKEN, hell has no place for lazy brittle souls. don't let ur feet fail u in the neutral/peaceful/hippy BS TV game.

just show heart ppl and leave the rest for fate's reasons.
prepare ur exposure and go vote. other will follow suit if u show true character.

don't shy away next time Cardinal Sfeir attacks us, just tell him to go to hell nicely and get on with ur life. be men about it. that's one thing Sleiman Frangieh seems to know about more than fpm lately. so enough with the victimization syndrome, it cost us enough already. keep it on and it will become fatal.

as i said, let them all come rushing at our flanks again, if we don't fail ourselves with self doubt and mental fear the results will be the same as in 2005 if not better for us.

lastely, as for the MoU "conundrum", Hizbulahs arms aren't killing ppl in the north, let the hizbullah-phobics deal with the trash and militias of the north b4 they come our way again with their mentally degenerate attacks on the MoU that protected their own asses more than one time for the record..

I think the biggest challenge for FPMers is the feel of comfortable lead and lack of incentive to go out there and do a grassroot campaigns in the history of Lebanon. In 2005 only 53% of Christians voted while 58% of Muslims did. If the grasstoot campaigns increase the percentage of Christian voters to 58% or higher, FPM will have landslide victory among Christian population. So I guess my point is hardwork is needed and Laziness and the feel of confidence are the biggest opposition FPM to face.

i agree on the red highlighted part. i do not see major opposition , money was used before= it did not work , media diffamation too , alliances same , batrak and co ufff daily not only during elections t3awadna w tamssa7na , the martyrdom thingy w dam el chahid bay w ebn w mart w bent el chahid is not a la mode khalas ... for me the lay back and el ness bet hebna w netekil 3ala hal ma7abeh is not enough FPM need to be active on the ground .

however i disagree with the "christian" thingy . they should be campaning everywhere not only in christian areas or on a christian level .

media campain is important no one will argue about that....
Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth. (Franklin D. Roosevelt) .
people are not stupid not that stupid anyway , believe me after long years of media false propaganda people are immuned i am talking not about the blind followers holeh ma2tou3 el amal fihon , people do listen and analyse more then you think . still we surely do not have to lay back and rest we do have a hard work ahead .

I think the Matn bi elections last time showed that everybody, EVERYBODY can be bought... unfortunate but true... so I believe our first battle should be first and foremost against the financial bribes of the opponents... as for the poltical stance of FPM, it has been very positive for the Lebanese in general and the christians in particular, even the neutrals concede that "akalna 3enab" in the end :)

[Dry Ice]

As per the stats, money and media seem like the biggest contributing factors to the 2009 elections..

What are FPM's mitigation factors?

[HooKs]

Well i voted the Judas of bkirki and his devilish army, the money and the media propaganda.
LF & Kataeb r nothing but an old farting relic of the past.. they r more of a joke than of a threat!

[Amirkani]

All of FPM's ducks are in a row... we should (and hopefully will) have the largest parliamentary bloc in the history of the Lebanese Parliament... the only side that can prevent that is FPMers themselves.

If we miss this golden opportunity, it would only be because "we" messed up.

For the money, we will be funded by Iran...

As for the media, we have Antoine Nasrallah, ya3ti alf 3afye 3ala heik performance....
