At the polls, Dr. Brown tells the media: “All I can say is campaigns that start early and begin to deteriorate early often end up [negative] like that.

The PLP’s debacle over the Berkeley Institute rebuild continues. Berkeley was originally slated to cost $68 million.

In order to blunt the criticisms of the Auditor General, the PLP these days likes to call Larry Dennis a stooge of the Opposition or worse.

Tom Vesey analyses this election battle in one sentence: But our only choice next Tuesday is between the UBP and the PLP as we currently find them – not as they once were, and not as we wish they would be. ‘Nuff said.
