When you read posts like this, you wonder why the Opposition cries out that the BN lose its 2/3 majority. Besides the fact that this means that the party in control can pass any bills they want in the parliament immediately, some might add that dampening that majority will also mean that the ruling coalition will be "humbled" and no longer be drunk with power.
Thus that mean we should vote for DAP (or PAS!) so that BN candidates don't win? Or perhaps you're happy with what the candidate has done previously, even if he's with BN (and don't want to vote for someone you know). Oh, but then remember that supporting a candidate also means supporting his party. If you're okay with the party, then by all means go ahead.
Most of my disagreement with BN (or PAS, for that matter) might be ideological. I haven't actually been victimized by any policies set up by the Government yet, but I can't say the same for others. Regardless, I would say it wouldn't hurt to even up the playing fields. All sides stand to gain, even if that means there will be much haranguing over a bill. What use is the Opposition if there is no need to hear the other side (no matter how silly that other side may be)?
