WE could only sympathize with Katrina. Although some people may think badly of her by putting herself in this situation, at this point, we can only sympathize and pray that this be a lesson to all the other women and that Katrina will overcome this nightmare with God’s help and people around her who love her. Medyo off lang na si Senator Revilla ang avid supporter niya. He may mean well, kaya lang because of his reputation as a ladies man, parang he is not the right person for the job. Baka instead na makatulong sya, makasama pa. No offense meant on this comment.

If Hayden Kho is sick in the head, he is not alone esp among politicians and movie actors. He did what every male dreams of doing, bed as many different voluptuous young girls with bursting boobies and film themselves. Why is he now a criminal, after all they were consenting adults and prob the ones after him are sicker in the practice of lust. Consider the politico with not one but five mistresses, etc. Filipinos are just too sexually immature they always think they have to grab the next pretty girl. Many Filipinas are victims of mashing, and other forms of sex molestations so no one is above reproach. The only solution is for men to practice sexual discipline and become sexually mature as well as genuinely love their wives whom they promise to love come what temptations may.

tao lang si katrina…niligawan nainlove at naloko….for me kahit hindi pa si haiden nagupload nun mali pa din ivideo nya un.tama si bong mayak ang ganun at me tinatagong yabang khit mukhang anghel….tama nga dont judge the book by its cover..katrina makakarecover ka din sa trials mo….wag natin husgahan si katrina,lahat ng tao marupok pero ang pagiging manloloko ay hindi normal….

your exactly correct on this posting. thats what i thought too. although we sympathize with her, she should have learned a lesson for this experience. celebrities are just like that. since they almost got everything they need in their glamorous life, they tend to do weird stuff whether for adventure, publicity or just a plain trip. sad thing is that our kind of media tend to hype and prioritize this kind of worthless issues. the personalities involved did this controversial video not by force or by accident but simply for an adventure. my question is, why dont we just concentrate on more important issues that will help our country move forward? interestingly, the reputation of this senator who was so involved in this matter was even more questionnable. this is what we get for electing public officials based on popularity but not on credentials. and i believe this curse will never end. oops, wait for erap, hes making a big comeback.

Sen. Revilla will ride any issue just to be in the news esp with the coming election. I am not completely sold that Katrina didn’t knew that she was being filmed. I just hope Katrina learned something from this.

Pervert, Perversion. These are the words that’s coming out from the mouth Sen. Ramon Revilla Jr. Does our Sen. Revilla knows the meaning of these words? He hightly stated in his privileged speech in the senate pointed out that Dr. Hayden is in the “highest level of perversion”. What? Does this senator knows whats the meaning of this word perversion? He should stop saying that, What about him and his father, they are all perverts. Sino ba ang maraming babae na ginagamit at pinagsamantalahan ang kanilang alindog at inaanakan? Ang ama mong si Ramon Revilla Sr., sya rin ba ay sinasali mo sa the highest level of perversion? Mag-isip ka nga.

I don’t have sympathy to this woman.
She did it why denounce it.
Their lascivious acts were consensual, done intimately with passion and erotic indicating they were lovers.
Remember too, that this woman is in movie profession and what goes with it, publicity whether good or bad.
Well, those crying times in the senate and NBI were scripted just like she was in
a dramatic act. What a fitting a scene.
A crocodile tears.
How about the respected senator.
The honorable became dishonorabe, his statemanship became a marketmanship if you know what I mean.
Why, well I cannot imagine the words this movie star senator uttered as if he was delivering dialogue in the face max alvarado or paquito diaz, or any kontrabida to that matter that they deserve no respect and should be condemned.
How about the Doctor? The doctor just played a minor part. He was just doing his surgery without scalpel but only his bare hands.
Well, in this age of You Tube, upload, friendster, website, facebook and my space, this incident is no big deal.
It is normal happening. For our daily activites are monitored and tweetered as they say.
They say, our country Philippines is the texting country of the world but also the upload video of the world. This is not new.
We are not in the betamax era where many actress where videotaped nor in vhs times where triple x movies were rampant.
We are in the age of cyberspace, the upgrade version of computer living.
Upload and you will be in tv waiting to be discovered.
In short, enough of hypocrisy.

Bong is notorious for being a ladies man. He might be or not the right person to handle coz a culprit may not handle it very well. But he did coz hes a senator and actor, where those involves are actors too.
If where seeing the same videos where katrina is dancing in underwear, she seems to be enjoying what she was doing. Her moves seems unrehearse but comes in ordinary. Although it shows hayden pushing her a little bit but she seems to be aware of the camera shots. I crucify no one but Katrina on the issue. She should know what to expect in a relationship of both consenting adults.
I can only judge on that video Ive seen on you tube.
Tony
Amy is right. Senator Revilla, a womanizer himself, is not the right person, and also because his father, Senator “Nardong Putik” had sired children from numerous women.

Amy is right. Senator Revilla, a womanizer himself, is not the right person. His father is also a womanizer.

Thats what I said to my comments to some article concerning this issue, I feel sorry for Katrina but those Politicians you can say look whose talking. The Revillas from Grandpa to grand kid how many illigitimate kids they have let the women suffer too cuz their kids maybe called “B”, and the Estradas, lot of politicians were immorals anyway, They said Philippine is Catholic country but they let those politician that have mistrisses become qualified candidate and elected. Now what moral are they talking about. U.S. is not a Catholic countries but once a candidate get involve in other woman they can even qualified as a candidate for any electoral position in the Government. Lead by example Bong

kho should pay for his sins . . . and katrina too. don’t you think katrina deserves these?

Si Bong Revilla pumapapel lang dahil eleksyon na naman at mukhang dehado sya kaya nagpapakilala… nakakaawa naman si katrina halili pati si bong revilla ine-exploit sya sa isyu na ito.
LeFleur
One is responsible for his/her own actions. And therefore , be ready for the matter of consequences for the things committed. One, therefore, has to think things over before plunging into something. I believe Katrina has learned her lesson so well . May this also be an example to all the women out there. Men should also learn a great deal - i.e. to treat women with utmost respect - as everybody , and I mean everybody deserves respect. I just hope Bong Revilla is just not simply using the Katrina case into his own vested ‘political’ interest, otherwise , he is no different from that ‘dysfunctional’ doctor.Let he who have not sinned casts the first stone!

a video is what you get when you engage in premarital sex. all the sex scandals i’ve seen, the girls are not the wives of their male partners.
michael
sex is a foretaste of heaven kaya napakasagrado nito. hindi man kasal ang gumawa nito, it still doesn’t change the fact. tama si katrina, pambababoy ang ginawa ni doc hayden. lalo na ang ulol na nag-download nito sa internet.
to katrina, my sympathy and prayers…
Pusang-Ligaw
marami tayong mga sikat na celebrities na nananatiling wholesome ang image dahil pinipili nila at iniisip ng mabuti ang kanilang ginagawa. pinagpi-piyestahan tuloy ng mga ambisyosong pulitiko at kulang sa pansin na mga tao sa lipunan ang skandalong ito na wala namang maidudulot ng mabuti sa ating pag-unlad. isa pa, para namang napakalinis ng budhi nitong si bong revilla kung pumapel sa isyung ito. at sana tigilan na ng mga celebrities ang mag-adventure at mag-trip ng kung ano-anong kabulastugan para hindi sila nalalagay sa ganitong sitwasyon. simple lang di ba?
Lena
ANG PORNOGRAPIYA AY ANYO NG KARAHASAN LABAN SA KABABAIHAN. DAHIL MACHO ANG LIPUNAN NATIN, MAS BINUBUNTUNAN NG SISI NG PUBLIKO SI KATRINA KESA KAY HAYDEN. SI KATRINA ANG NAGMUMUKHANG MAS P&*(, IMBES NA BIKTIMA.
bong
sure, kwawa talaga si katrina. pero sa video mukhang enjoy na enjoy siya. lesson, makinig sa pari : say no to pre-marital sex (lalo na may karelasyong iba pa yun, nakisawsaw or tikim lang?). paano na kung infected ng HIV yung buwang na doctor? hawa-hawa
Cris
I am so sorry, but I can not feel sympathy for Katrina. I can not believe that she did not know about the video. And let’s face it, at the end of the day, siya ang makikinabang. She will be a more famous actress from all of this. Anyone portraying themselves as a sex starlet shouldn’t be surprised by this.
DeathNote
Sad to hear that a womanizer helps a victim of such crime. But just give him a chance. His intention may be legit. I am only concern of the standard moral of a Filipino women. Why is that if a celebrity is a victim, It made such a fuss. But when it happen to an ordinary women. We dont pay any attention. Sad to hear that we live on a dog-eat-dog society. Just look around foreigners are feasting with our women and yet you dont pay any attention.
grape
We all deserve second chance after second chance and another second chance. Hopefully, Katrina and all those who enjoy the ‘game of fire’ should be very careful if they can’t totally avoid it.
Thanks to the government for their effort, but i guess the senator is overreacting. Too much time and effort are being wasted on showbiz.
Senator, please fry a bigger fish.
leleto
dapat na mangyari ang mga sex scandal expose na yan. Mag sisitigil ba ang mga tao na yan kung hindi ma expose sa publiko? Mga pasaway kasi. Magsipag bago na kasi kayo ant magsisi ng mga kasalanan…
gem
First of all, isn’t there anybody who can stop this scandalous videos from being accessible to everybody with a computer and internet connection? It’s posted on popular sites that even minors can access. Can’t it be pulled out or deactivated? About katrina, what she does in the bedroom is her business, it was wrong to record it without her knowledge. Of course during the act enjoy sya, wag na tayo magpakaipokrito coz that’s the nature of the act, but she did not expect ANYBODY else to see or know about it. About Senator Revilla, it’s a win-win situation for him for both his business (showbiz and politics) and that’s the only reason he’s getting soooo involved.
quicksand
Mga kababaihan na rin ang dahilan kung bakit bumababa ang tingin sa kanila ng kalalakihan. Alam naman ni Katrina na may karelasyon si Hayden bakit pa siya pumatol dito? Kung walang karelasyon si Hayden Kho walang masama dahil pareho naman silang nasa tamang edad na. Kaya kung anuman ang nangyari kay Katrina, kasalanan niya yun. Hindi gagawin sa kanya ni Hayden yun kung talagang mahal siya ni Hayden.
zoey
I hope and pray for Katrina, that she comes out a better person after all of this is over. There is a rumor going around that she tried to commit suicide. I think she has to remember that for a celebrity, any publicity is good or bad, is still publicity and just take this with a grain of salt. And remember “what cannot kill you can only make you stronger.” I think this serves as a reminder that there are many wolves in sheep’s clothing out there and to know more about a man before hitting the sack with him. I guess at this time, being old fashioned has its rewards.
zoey
My sympathies for Katrina. I do hope and pray she gets over this and moves on with her life. A rumor is going around that she tried to commit suicide. We should have complete “ownership” of our actions. I think she should just take this with a grain of salt, remember, she is a celebrity, and for a celebrity, any publicity good or bad is still publicity. Just remember “Anything that cannot kill me can only make me stronger.” Just do a Paris Hilton, get the most media mileage from the whole brouhaha and work it.

Tama ang sabi ni Bong, Lena, Cris at Pusang-Ligaw.
Wala ibang sisihin kundi ang kalandian ni Katrina, kung hindi sana s’ya pupunta sa bahay ni Hayden o di ala sanang sex video ng nabou.

the issue here is without the consent of the victim to release that video..whoever release that video is the one who should be prosecute.
wonderwoman
So much for Katrina Halili’s case. Anyway, the ball is starting to roll in her favor. She succeeded to get symphaty from the NBI and a case is filed against Haeden Koh.
What the nation should concentrate now is the sudden success in which our represseive legislatator were able to rail-road the Con-Ass in defiance of public opinion, the Church people (CBCP) and the Senate.
First, the word People’s Representative (Congress) has lost its meaning by the unilateral move done by the majority party in Congress which is the Lakas-Kampi-CMD. They have defied all sense of moral value when the pass the Resolution 1109 in the shortest possible time, amidst ofter pressing bills such as the CARP.
No other than the House Speaker Prospero Nograles and the Children Congressman and in-laws of PGMA instigated the historic move to defy the society that these “Frogs” should be serving in the first place.
In a hostoric move, while the poor marginalized farmers who were rallying outside the BATASAN for almosst 45 days for Congress to formalized Genuine Land Reform, the marginalized teacher who could hardly survive with their meager salary, here, we see our People’s Representative despirately moving to change our Constitution to extend the term of PGMA.
The August House of Chamber has turnished its name into “House of Prostitutes, or Den of thieves.” The Majority in the Chamber has done something no decent political party in the annals in the Philippines has done before.
And the Lower House has surrendered to the Executive Branch what ever independent body or co-equal they should have been.
Poor Filipinos, they have nowhere to go but to go on the street to vent their strong protest.
I have mentioned this before that our Congress can no longer function as vanguard of Democracy. It metamorphized in to an evil empire of its making.
This time, the people has to assert its right to safeguard it rights in the name of Democracy.
This time the citizens, the military, the religious groups of different denomination, should bond together to send the messages that Democracy is something we as people cannot sacrifice irregardless of any reason.
shioan
I’m sorry but I cannot sympathize with her. Oo, tao lang sya na nagkakamali. Pero tao rin sya na alam dapat kung ano ang tama sa mali, especially if you can very well think a thousand times before you commit a mistake. (Not to mention bagong ligo ata sya? So dapat nahimasmasan na sya or something…) Women all over the world are getting raped everyday dahil lang sa wala silang magawa o walang gustong tumulong sa kanila. But she volunteers herself to the act kahit sabihin pa nya na mahal nya yung tao (and that they had mutual understanding while doing the act). Tapos ngayon iiyak sya sa national TV saying na parang ni-re-rape sya every time na pinapanood yung video nya? Alam naman nating imposibleng isa-isahin ang mga tao sa mundo para pagbawalan silang manood ng video nya. The surest way to stop them from watching these kinds of videos is to stop providing them with something to watch. At kanino magsisimula yon? E di sa mga tulad nya mismo. Remember, change should always start from within. Parang ang Pilipinas, hindi magbabago ang bansa natin kung ang bawat isa sa atin ay ayaw magbago. Sabi nga ni Leo Tolstoy, “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but nobody thinks of changing himself.”
PS: I’m not condemning her either. I’m in no position since I don’t know her personally. If this issue has taught her a lesson or two, then good for her. I cannot sympathize but I wish her all the best.

Sex scandals are just manifestations of human incapability to handle his own freedom. We were given the freedom to choose what is good and evil and to look beyond good and evil.
Sa Nakita Ko Lang
“When there is smoke, there is fire.”
She is also being use by politicians who want to be grandstanding in public.
Root causes of this scandal:
1) Video taking of private acts (HK’s fault)
2) Uploading to the internet (sure not HK)
3) the list goes on
bochoking
I think the senate need not handle this case leave it to the court to decide. There are more problems to be tackled in the senate. Bong instead may introduce a bill that would prevent women from being abused and humiliated especially by married men, or by anybody.
Pedro
People take steps to advance in life. Some disregard the rules and succeed. Some fail and have to pay the price. People involved in this scandal are mature, educated and consenting adults. They could not blame anybody else but themselves. Hopefully, this weirdos will learn their lessons and move on. The public owes no sympathy to these misbehaving folks who used to project themselves as living models of the society. In fact, these fallen angels should be punished for violating the country’s law and moral standards, in order to warn the public of the detrimental consequence of this egregious misdeed.
Pedro
Bong Revilla may be serious in his concern for women and Katrina in particular. However, if, as a politician, he is not even half believable, what does he think, with his track record on morality, would make him a bit believable on his concern for Katrina and the womenfolk?
Concerned Citizen
My message is to the Senate of the Philippines from a very concerned citizen that lives here in the United States:
Why the hell you are so concerned about personal matters? The way to deal with this is learn to live with it and move on or stop your life until all Filipinos are buried with shame (the second choice is darn stupid). When will these senators actually do their jobs and think of resolving public issues like improving the lives of Filipinos instead of digging into some worthless individuals personal issues. Leave them alone Senator Bong Revilla. The more you talk about it, the more it’s gonna grow and the right way of helping these two people out of this is to stop talking about this whole damn thing. Senator Bong Revilla, can you do the Filipino people some favor, DO SOME WORK! The taxpayers are paying you to do your job well not this kind of work. You act like you are holier than thou and concern about protecting women’s right? Why not then put up an institution that will protect the abused children in the Philippines? These two I must say are both ADULTS and they both chosen to engage themselves in that serious act. Those abused children, dear senator, they did not chose to get abused. I am a woman myself, I can understand how Katrina feels but it’s not like she did not consented into it. She as an adult acted in such manner by HER CHOICE. The abused kids did not. I don’t know what else to say but I think it’s such a shame that we have a very crappy and shitty politics in the Philippines.
victor manalac
it all began with a wrong choice, lack of control, and a wreckless passion. they enjoyed their moments, and the ilicitness fuelled the relationship. katrina thought she held a jewel of a man in hayden. not a few men envy hayden’s conquest, and some women silently wish they had the tryst with the same predator in surgeon’s gown. i wonder if the senator felt as green. consensual need not mean they were right in doing what they did.
having sex was consensual. the consequences must be mutual. she entered into the relationship. she knew there were risks. she may have considered all possibilities but not being video’ed. hayden looked harmless to her and she may have seen him a great catch.
she isn’t the first woman on video scandals , and quiapo merchants can tell you that. were she a nobody there wouldn’t be any furor. her popularity just made her dvd more saleable than the rest. and hayden is not the only “pervert” (as some say he is) who needs therapy. the fact that sex videos proliferate means there are many sub-normal minds around.
soo, the scandal will die down. katrina’s suit against hayden will be gone. forgiveness will come from both parties. time will heal.
fesojiuam
consequence is a bigger word than anyone thinks..
Glenn
Someone commented about Hayden as “dysfunctional” doctor which is correct. We should not also be blinded by the celebrity status of Katrina to gravitate our sympathy for her. To me, Katrina herself is a dysfunctional women who had sex with someone without the benefit of marriage. Both of them are immorality out of lane.
criz
Sympathy is clearly due to everyone (man or woman) who has become victims of these acts.
Yet, what good do we get out of this?
Does it protect other women (less fortunate and less popular) who has become and will be victimized?
Is punishment really the prime answer for deterring the commission these acts?
When this matter goes to court, it will take What? 5-10 years to finish? what happens after?
in the end, do you think society as a whole will benefit from this sensationalized real life drama?

true, kawawa si katrina, but it should not be a reason enough para dalhin sa senado ang kaso niya, napakaraming problema ng pilipinas, krisis pampinansyal at pulitika. Talagang walang kadala-dala, para hindi maisip na ginagamit din lang siya para sa pampersonal na interes ng mga kung sinong herudes, Revilla is like renting the best and highest paid PR firm for free.
richie
NO PRE-MARITAL SEX.this is the lesson we should teach to the younger people.even in the senate,wala tayong naririnig na nag a advice ng ganito.all they have to tell was that ‘mag-ingat’ kayo at baka matulad sa ganito.My God,tell the whole world,walang sex kung di pa kayo kasal.
richie
i heard channel 7 wants katrina halili to be back on tv.di na sya karapatdapat makita sa tv dahil magiging halimbawa sya sa mga kabataan,sisikat pa pala rin tayo kahit gumawa tayo ng kawalang hiyaan.dapat bigyan si katrina ng trabaho sa channel 7 doon sa opis nila at hindi na artista.
luz tecson
ang lesson para kay katrina, in the first place, hindi siya dapat nakikipagrelasyon sexually sa hindi asawa. that is the standard na ibinigay ng Diyos. alam kung masakit ang nangyari sa kanya, nanay din ako na may anak na babae but she should learn from her experience. may pag-asa pa siya.
Miss Vi
Katrina H. as a woman, is definitely, technically kawawa no matter how she enjoys their intercourse as seen on the video. Even a prostitute has the rights. But that should be a lesson already, LADIES: do not just give yourself to a hunky guy, looks can be deceiving. ^_^
About Mr. senator, what he said about the “pervert to the highest…” thing, yes, I agree but I hope next time, let us see first if our hands are dirty or not before looking at the other’s dirty hands. Katrina is not the only “kawawa” here, there are more girls. Pornography is never an art.
alma
i am not sorry for katrina nor hayden. they are just both victims of their own making. i am sorry for the filipino people for having senators the like of bong revilla and jamby madrigal. don’t they have brains in the senate. pati ba pag utot kailangan pag usapan sa senado? don’t they have more pressing matters to discuss that will interest and benefit us all?
luz tecson
sex must be within the context of marriage. no buts or ifs. dapat one must follow that rule. otherwise, may consequences if you disobey that rule.

katrina is mature enough to know what she did. she must be mature enough to accept the outcome.
hugo
We live in a double standard world, we women would like to be equal with men in our society yet we want men to be gentlemen.
What happened to katrina is just a consequence to her action. Karma ‘ika nga.
Although Kho recorded the video, i don’t think he meant to spread it. I think it’s for personal consumption only.
The crime there is trust, never trust a cheater and they both are.
gurgle
I think mr. bong revilla deserves to be charged too, for all the emotional battery his wife experienced everytime she discovered the many women of ‘bong the man’
orlando g vergel
i think with the filing of charges against Belo et al by katrina halili, will further unmask the mastermind of uploading the sex videos in the internet. it is getting clearer that vengeance and jealosy is the motive for this crime. i hope katrina will not falter on this drive and let us see how money and fame will fare against the administration of justice in this country. this will be a classic saga to watch.

tsk tsk tsk
to senator bong, we appreciate you poking your nose in this fight against injustice but there are other things far more important that you and the other public servants should attend to. let them be, and focus on the less fortunate Filipinos you swore to serve.
it makes me sad seeing where our taxes go…
vaynatz
I could not symphatize with Katrina more so with Hayden, they both need psychological evaluation for everything that had happened. In the first place they should have not done such things knowing that Hayden has a relationship with someone else… addendum to all of these fuss is sensational media and the technologies we have now… So its not just what happened to them but it is what happen to us…
Mac
Why are we focusing all our attention on these two? The ones who stole these video files from the doctor’s computer and uploaded it in the net should be the ones grilled here. Psychologically imbalanced and narcissistic as he is, Kho had those videos for personal viewing. I think he will benefit more from a psychiatry consult than a jail term. The ones who uploaded them, on the other hand, had a lot of malice in their intentions and should be the ones prosecuted. As for those people condemning, please. You all know you have your own dirty little secret, so don’t for once think we’re going to believe any of this “holier than thou” crap.
Haydenako
We all deserve what happens to us. Katrina’s case is no exception.
jamal565
Senator Bong’s background as a womanizer himself is a blot in his sincerity in pursuing the cause. He is also suspected of simply using the Kathrina bruhaha to grandstand to re-election next year. I hope that instead of making more press statements on the issue, he should just concentrate on improving the law that protects women and children from sexual exploitation. At least may maiwan naman syang legacy sa ating bansa as a senator. Because to spend his whole term in the senate as a “benchwarmer” is simply a very difficult task
Jestoni-ini
I respectfully disagree with Jamal’s statement about the good senator. Lets give Sen. Bong the benefit of the doubt and support him with his cause to protect showbiz personality from exploitation. Afterall he represented this sector of our society. It his high time that somebody from that sector do something to correct the bad image that showbiz has (breeding ground for drug addicts, immoral relationships and sexual perverts). Lets look at the senators’ heart and not on his previous personal misadventures. Afterall whatever was his misdoings before it was done as a private individual.
victor manalac
because of people’s curiosity , i believe that hayden kho will be even more sought for as a cosmetic doctor and the belo clinic will become even more popular and will enjoy more clients. boyfriends and husbands of would-be clients however would think twice to allow their GF or wives to be a hayden patient !!! but if purely for cosmetic improvements, well, Belo it is !
if the opposite happens then he (kho) can probably shift to a new busines - like a studio for dirty dancing lessons or spy photography. he may not however be allowed to use the 40 videos as teaching materials. but some say that he may lose his license if the charges are truly pursued to the hilt. if that happens then he may have to settle to being just another jobless stud .
but his and katrina’s “episode” shouldn’t continue to be a national issue. let a good thing come out of it - like the anti-boso bill or something to that effect. and an even better thing - forgiveness, compassion, counselling, and cure. these things come best at the worst crises.
GeeUnit
Kung hindi celebrety si Katrina, mag papa pogi ba si Bong Revilla sa speech niya? Maraming scandal na kumakalat sa internet pero dahil gusto niyang maki ride on sa publicity nito, nag pasikat yang si Mr Revilla. Hindi na sana inaksaya ng senate ang hearing dyan, Maraming issue ang dapat talakayin. Ang hirap kasi panay senate inquiry wala namang nangyari, tulad ng Euro Generals walang update ang kaso, yung hello Garci, etc… hay naku wala talagang asenso ang Pinas..Nakakainis lang…
jmi
Katrina Halili is no saint and deserves no sympathy. Why was she with Hayden Kho in the first place? As for Hayden, he’s one sick pervert and should face the consequence. He’s not mentally sick or otherwise, its only a lame excuse. If this happened in a middle eastern country they would have been stoned to death.
B
cyberspace…youtube…online videos…these are common nowadays…ppl in the philippines is making such a big fuss out of this…trying to be modest and proper (just becus it’s a catholic country??) when most ppl are doing the other thing?? such hypocrites!!!
katrina and hayden will just shake the dust off their feet and will have to move on…in no time, ppl will forget about it just like the other past issues, and will even forgive. nothing’s ever new…
Troll
In Philippine criminal law, adulterous women are much more heavily penalized than men, whose crime would be just concubinage. Some people argue that such seems archaic, unfair, backwards and hardly reflective of modern ideals. But after learning of most peoples reactions to this ‘Hayden cam,’ I feel the archaic division of adultery for women, and concubinage for men suits our macho chauvinist masochistic society just fine.
A woman, no matter what her social status, should have the capacity to defend her honor against someone who betrayed her trust and exposed their most intimate moments together to public scrutiny.
The act of sex is not, per se, vulgar.
It is the act of exposing the sex to public domain, when one of them believed the act was truly intimate and private that makes it vulgar.
I’m sorry for katrina.. and sorry for posting something so verbose. I just kept typing all my thoughts and ended up turning this into my soapbox.

This issue is really blown out of proportion. Totoo merong violations at me legal rights si Katrina to pursue a case. Pero para sa mga senador, to make a grandstanding out of this issue, sobra na. And I don’t think this issue is doing good for them. Nagmukha lang katawatawa at bobo ang mga senador during the senate hearing. Pinangalandakan lang nila ang kanilang kamangmangan.
baluc/ka
This is a playbook from Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian and Pamela Anderson. Same thing: sex video scandal and more fame as a result.
The whole thing was staged. And if it isn’t, the outcome will be the same. Katrina will be a bigger star than ever.
Poor Doctor Kho. Nobody remembered the guys in the video or haven’t heard from them since.

Poor katrina, though she enjoyed, she has has the taste of the consequence of her action. Yah we know hate the sin and not the sinner. Pero ginawa nila with their consent.. Is this really what showbiz is? it is infested with all kinds of sin amids glamor and popularity…

okay so my original post was way too venomous so let me self moderate and state a few things.. i support Katrina’s cause, not her, but what she went through and the legal, moral and social possibilities, since she chose to fight, might bring.. Women’s welfare advocates and groups have suffered a huge blow in the public arena after that whole Subic-Nicole caper.. View Peoples scorn for Katrina and then consider that the actual sex was done privately, raising presumptions she didn’t know. A womanizer who serially recorded sex with the women he was with.. his character is plainly a pig.. and yet people scorn Katrina for being recorded in her most private moments? People will say she wanted it to happen, that she let it happen, that she enjoyed it.. but those are the same accusations that keep genuine rape victims from going to court.. She’s not been raped, but the visibility of this issue, it’ll play out in the minds of future generations.. No matter how morally upright the upbringing or the culture, there will always be a persistently, charismatic individual who may not have the best intentions.. so let this issue be a precedent that makes a change.. or just some event that screws with the minds of future generations.

I do not feel any sympathy to Katrina. Nasisiyahan nman sya sa ginawa nya and now is claiming a victim? She did it with Hayden and now she blame everything to Hayden. Remember Katrina you’re already of age. I dont think na hindi mo alam ang ginawa mo??? kawawa ka nman
VIA
That’s the prize of woman who do not value their dignity. tapos ngaun iiyak sya at kung magsalita parang wala syang kasalanan? she has been talking of exploitation. papanu ka ini-exploit eh ang tanda mo na. I am sure baka hindi lng kay Hayden mo nagawa yon. Try to examine yourself bago iiyak sa media

I really sympathize w/ the Barramedas, I pity them. If the situation does not allow the children of Rose to see their mother for the last time, just have the ceremony video taped.
krizz
sympathy for katrina is misplaced. what’s the difference between the video and what she does for a living? these shallow minded showbiz people would do anything for the publicity. well, she got it and now everyone knows her name and what she looks like. her managers must be rejoicing.
this hypocrite bong revilla should not stop with the investigation of katrina. he should also look into the moral background of people in government such as a certain ex senator ramon revilla who reportedly fathered children with a hundred women; and don’t forget the plundering, alcoholic ex-president estrada who maintains and flaunts one mistress for every day of the week. these should be the target of the fundamentalist catholics
Mr.Bench
We are all sinners anyway. We ought not to point our fingers to others instead. However, we should not justify our being human every time we commit mistakes. It is our morale that we are going to deal with. God gives us the gift of intellect and reasons to think and even to feel each situations. In the case of Katrina learn to accept realities and begin new life…go forward there is still a room for new beginning and never do it again. love sometimes drive us to be stupid if we do not use our mind. we ought to let our heart rule over our mind and let our mind rule over our heart. ” The only constant in life is change.” Live and move in God’s grace.

Katrina paid a very high price.
I doubt whether she could win this case or not.

i really feel sorry for Katrina but she has to suffer the consequences of her actions. in the first place, she already knew that Hayden has a relationship with Belo, she shouldn’t have done it to her and even worst she was an endorser of Belo company…such a traitor to her friend

Unfortunately, I can’t feel any sympathy for Katrina. Yes, she was violated for having that “very personal” acquaintance recorded (without her knowing?) and was viewed by people all over the world (I have a friend who’s seen the video in the U.S.) but we should determine the root cause of that. She did this with someone who she knows has a girlfriend. She even said before that “Wala syang pinagsisihan”. Now look where she has been taken by that illicit affair. “Digital ang karma” as they say. What bothers me is how politicians take advantage on this issue for exposure for the upcoming election. This is not the first video that contains such “very personal” acquaintance, some women on those videos were even minors. Why is it just now that they take action on this? Is it because the person on that video is a celebrity and by helping out a famous person would earn points for their campaign? Why is it just now? Besides, they should not just dwell on how Hayden Kho can be such a pervert, he was not the one who uploaded it in the internet anyway. I didn’t expect the politicians to have such “kababaw” na common sense to focus on that issue. Compared to Filipinos who still live in the squatter’s area or in the street, those who doesn’t eat thrice a day or doesn’t even eat at all, for children who doesn’t have any means to go to school, or for graduates who still doesn’t have work, this issue is just a MOLE on the SCAR caused by politicians who does not have the capacity to serve, really serve the country.
milesvdb
with all this scandals! hay they should stop this! it will never get better. My point of view is that why is it that Katrina just complain now about her so-called lipo? is she crazy or what? why not before? now that the scandal is here is spreading words against where she works, got earnings for! all i can say is that she is one crazy artist, which cannot be respected! why? ‘coz she herself is not using her brain…if she know firsthand what was happening why complain now? she has a big mouth, lots of blah blah no boom boom! Katrina, i can say is that take a look at yourself, ask yourself! why are you in that situation, why? you did some stupid things you pay for it! it’s just a bad karma that turns unto you this time! kaya nga pana-panahon lang yan! be true to yourself and don’t get dragged with all false statements/beliefs/stories! DON’T FANTASIZED!

Unfortunately, I can’t feel any sympathy towards Katrina Halili. Yes, she was violated for having that “very personal” acquaintance recorded (without her knowing?) and viewed by people around the world but that’s the consequence of having an affair with a man who is in a relationship already. She stated before that she doesn’t have any regrets with that, now look where she has taken by that illicit affair. As they say, “digital ang karma”. What really bothers me is on how politicians take advantage of this issue for exposure for the upcoming 2010 elections. This is not the first video scandal, some were even minors on that video. Why is it just now that they were making action plans or whatsoever? Is it because the person on that video is a celebrity, like helping out a famous person would earn them points for the election? I was disappointed on how the politicians can be so shallow to focus on that issue. There are much relevant issues they need to focus on. There are still a lot of Filipinos who doesn’t have a home, those who live in the street, some children doesn’t have any means to go to school, graduates who are still unemployed, some are not able to eat thrice a day or doesn’t eat at all. The Katrina video is just a MOLE on the SCAR caused by politicians who does not have the CAPACITY to serve, really serve our Country.
Connie Dust
Yes, Belo’s clinic should be CLOSED! Both her and Kho should be revoke of license. Shame on you both!
I really don’t know much about Halili because I’m in Colorado USA, BUT, despite of that fact, I won’t let anybody ruin any woman. Even if she’s an actress of whatever category. Personal life should be separated from her (Halili’s) job. She’s still entitle and have the right for “confidentiality” (if Belo and Kho knows the meaning of it.
orlando g vergel
the halili, belo and kho brouhaha is getting more interesting. belo’s latest statements are putting her more in trouble. her woes like being snatched of a boy friend like hayden kho and telling katrina of being walang utang na loob are proof of too much anger that would justify her taking vengeance by ordering the uploading of the videos in the internet. ganti-ganti lang! and the worse of it, she did not realized that what she/they did would reach this far. masyado nilang minaliit ang kayang gawin ni halili. kaya, magkalintik-lintik na ito. the moral of the story - do not under-estimate people of what they can do!
Anne
I dont feel any symphaty for her too….. sorry…. pero i just think sya ang gumaganti kaya nga ginagawa lahat ito ngayon! she is with lolit…and we all know who lolit is…. i dont trust them…
peter
I’m sorry but she deserves what she is getting. Come on! There are others that experienced worst than her.
Next time Katrina, don’t mess with others lover. If I were Katrina’s friend. I would be weary of her getting near my boy friend.
She even have the audacity to tell she did not regret it. I’m just sorry that GMA don’t even disciplined her.
I thought GMA Network is not like ABSCBN that continues to tolerate Willie. Booo GMA!!.
At please po Ms Katrina. Wala naman palang problem Lippo mo, obvious gusto mo lang balikan sila. Just make sure na sila nga dapat mong balikan, kasi kawawa ka naman later on if Mali ang taong tinitira mo. I don’t think they would release the video themselves. But anyways, you deserve what you are getting.
dapat po magingat mga friend ni Katrina, she seems to enjoy stealing BF of others.
Ang dumi ng tingin ko sa kanya. Grabe!!!
peter
It just came to me. Wouldn’t lolit have a motive to sell the video that she admitted seeing before?
Money,Money. I think she is playing with Katrina, using her a pawn. Poor Girl. But then again, SHE DESERVES WHAT IS SHE GETTING.
kilabot
whether may nangyaring masama o wala sa lipo procedure na pinerformed ni hayden kho is besides the purpose of the law violated. the wordings of the law requires explicit experience and training for a doctor to perform such a procedure hence, the law is violated and somebody has to to be accounted and be responsible for its violation. sorry, the law may be harsh but it has to be respected and be enforced to the fullest.
Yahm
No matter what type of woman Katrina is, there is still no way she deserves having her intimate encounters being taken by video and spread like wildfire in the internet!
It is wrong that she had a relationship with Hayden knowing that he is Belo’s boyfriend, pero mali pa rin ang ginawa ni Hayden!
Fine, call her malandi, mang-aagaw, etc. but because of that, you think OK lang ang ginawa ni Hayden because she deserves it?! — that’s STUPID!
john
All these women’s groups supporting halili are just interested with the media exposure. Come on, why would you support a character who’s making money by exploiting the female body? Her provocative images splashed everywhere promote rape and violence. The feminists are supposed to be against her, against what she’s standing for. Isn’t it ironic?
orly
with things getting tight on belo’s side, sooner we will see tamano quitting his legal services. its hard defending a flirt mother and a role model as a doctor. tamano will also protect his political ambitions if he wants to be elected as a public figure. you bet!
angelino
just an advised to Katrina, keep silent na lang, gayahin mo si Paris Hilton, humingi na lang ng pera kay Rick Solomon, ang dati niyang boyfriend na nag-upload ng video nila, si Paris Hilton ay lalong yumaman, nag-invest sa pabango at gumawa ng libro, so kwartahan mo na lang sila Belo at hayden, tapos mag-invest ka sa real estate, Katrina wala kang magagawa kasi hindi mo mapapasara ang yahoo, googles, MSN, at lalo na si Bill Gates,magagalit siya, ang internet ay nakikita ng buong mundo, dito sa Canada, araw araw naming pinapanood ang video mo at ke maricar…alm na ng mga tao dito ang website, so maging smart ka katulad ni PARIS HILTON..
Medz
Hey Peter whoever you are wake up! You have a distorted since of justice, whatever Halili has done thats besides the point. The poor girl was video taped during sexual act WITHOUT, thats the key word without her consent which is a very private moment. If that is not exploitation then what is?
Harry King
Are we seeing any similarities between Katrina Halili and Jun Lozada?
ER
I never believed Katrina Halili is a victim in this sex scandal, First, If she’s in her right mind, bakit siya pumatol kay Hayden Kho despite the fact that Hayden is still with Dra. Belo at that time?
Second, Is she a victim of coercion, abduction or any force against her will?
The problem here is that we Filipinos are so emotional and easily got carried away with symphaty with crying babies in public, to the point that we sometimes forgot to weighed things properly on what is right or wrong.
It is the same way on the case of Nicole vs Smith where she claimed being raped despite the fact that she willingly go with those men bar hopping at the middle of the night.
I hope we Filipinos should learn how to be prudent in our sense of judgement, not just because of emotions.
john
Baket nga ba kailangan bigyan ng simpatiya si katrina? Di ba trabaho niya yan at pinagkikitaan pa ng malaking pera ang pagpapakita niya ng katawan niya? Dapat lang magdusa siya sa mga ginawa niyang pang-aagaw sa lalaki ng ibang tao! Malandi!!!
aimee
i admire katrina’s courage; i hope she will not succumb to pressure; belo is influential and moneyed; she can afford to destroy her - it is not a question of whether katrina enjoyed doing, but was something private; for somebody to video and upload is the height of lunacy - belo and hayden should disappear from this country; they are both narcissistic
caviteboy
Napanuod ko ang video, hindi naman malinaw. Kung hindi naman inami ni Katrina na siya iyong nasa video sino ang puedeng maka kilala sa kanya? Iyong isang babae sa video, iyon sobrang linaw pero we did not hear anything from her, pero bakit si Katrina ang panay ang epal? Agree ako sa sinabi ni Peter, Katrina deserve what she is getting now!
weiro
It is pretty obvious that Ms. Katrina Halili is getting back on them and by doing such, Hayden is open to the reigns of the medical board. but I doubt revocation. Perhaps a suspension is much closer. This issue of stripping Hayden Kho of his Licence is not new. Its publicity.
As what is mentioned in the Law of Violence against woman and children, taking a video of having sex, between two partners, is not a crime under that Act. Morally Hayden and Katrina committed a mistake. In which Dr. Hayden regrets. hitting below the belt, as what Ms halili believes and is doing, wont cleanse her name from this scandal. A Law must be passed first that will cover such morally wrong doing to protect woman, man or anyone, be it a member of the third sex, from publication of similar, without consent, materials. This issue is an eye opener. I just hope that this wont be use in politiciation. Let us remember, this is not the first time it happened.
Cynthia
PHILIPPINES, don’t be hypocrite, please!!
Don’t deal with a bland story that don’t deserve better viewing. Pay attention to solving crimes, prostitutions, croc politicians, shenanigans, etc. the Philippines is already plunging in desperate situation. Please May God bless the PHILIPPINES.!!
Janice
Sa una, akala ko gusto lang ni katrina kakuhaan ng aral ang nangyari sa kanya kaya gusto niyang ipaglaban at ipaabot sa korte ang kaso niya hoping na maparusahan si Hayden. Pero bakit
ngayon ay hinahalungkat niya pati ang pag oopera ni hayden sa kanya? Ano ba ang gusto niyang ipalabas?
maegan
everybody lies!
And everyone deserves punishment.
Remember the “golden rule”
CyanFox
I think the real issue here isn’t about making sex videos but about morality itself. Our society has become too complacent, too tolerant. In fact, I have heard male conversations where they are actually happy about this because they get to see Halili (and others) “in naked action”. More than laws and regulations, I think we need to reevaluate our moral values - what’s left of it, anyway.

Katrina is just an example on the bible LAW-What you sow you reap.She is practicing fornication.We don’t tolerate this practice as believers.The bible condemned this already a very grave sin where in you cannot enter God’s kingdom but instead you will be joining the devil.No condemnation and judgement will be for her unless she repents.I don’t see any repentance from her.Shame on her.

Oh yeah! For a such a doctors! Shame on them both, Where you guys get your education in JOLLIBEE?
For a matrona like her, she got the nerve to say that she got nothing to do with it, who raided KHO’s apartment isnt’it you? the NBI people should nail you on this. what are you thinking? you think a younger guys will take you seriously? I dont think soo they want your money madam..
KARMA? yes you belittle a lot of people ie: boy abunda and calayan, you should see yourself first, anyway how can you see yourself if one of your eyes is (?)

Katrina deserves all the humiliation. It is a lesson on her part. C’mon Katrina, you enjoyed everything in bed with Hayden.

there’s no sympathy here…baka panty lang pwede ko ibigay kay Ms Halili..nakakatawa na sya..lahat na lang nalilink sa kanya, kakasuhan nya…who is she anyway? instead of moving on with her life and pursue her career…she’s just messing around…i admire Ms Maricar Reyes…she’s a brave one…di nya pinapansin ang nangyari sa kanya, after all ginusto rin naman nya…and she’s making her career keep going and moving with her life…
Ms Halili…just go on with your life…you are just messing around…baka pagdating ng araw na imbes na marami sumimpatya sayo e,..nakakatawa ka lang..you’ll just become a laughing stock…

Firstly who is Katrina Halili? Ano bang nagawa nya para sa bayan natin? Wearing 2 piece on prime time TV? I don’t get it why senators and all other politicians have to be there and investigate this to think marami pang nauna sa kanya (di nga lang sikat) normal people na biktima rin.
Utang ng loob maraming nagugutom at walang trabaho sa Pinas. Sana yun ang unahin nila. Wala naman nagawang maganda si Katrina Halili sa bansa natin bat parang napaka special ng treatment sa kanya.
Rod
And why only Katrina. Indeed it is unfair. Public common knowledge say there are about/around 40 others in Hayden’s files.
I guess Katrina appears less moneyed but big bomb exploded. That must have sent a big chill to others. [I heard one sweet youngster, representing U.N. for the youth sector, grown up in Paris is one of them.] This must be rediculous rumor.
Mario
Sorry, no sympathies. On second thought, I might have if she would not appear on tv or would not continue on showbiz anymore because of the incident. She did and was not affected at all after all the propaganda and drama. Perhaps, what happened to her has had solicited sympathies and more mileage for her, which(I could be wrong) is taken advantage by the network.

Alexander the Great “Had great charisma and force of personality, characteristics which made him a great leader and general of his men.”
Hopefully the AFP will only promote highly qualified military leaders to lead its army or marines in combat and avoid casualties.
No excuses if the Abu Sayyaf can ambush these men in uniform and mutilate their dead bodies later.

Sorry to say but no sympathy for Katrina from me. there are lot of women that were also a victim with this kind of scandals and yet this so called politicians (especially you Bong Revilla) did nothing. why make a move right now?
During the prestigious schools scandal times, as far as I can remember, politicians were also involved in some investigations but until now, NO LAW was ever implemented. And now because Katrina Halili was involved and she will become the first victim that will receive justice because she’s a known TV personality!? IT’S UNFAIR to those previous victims. This politicians are just making this as an excuse. It’s either 1) They want to use this for their political career or 2) They want to have a sleep and intimate moment with Katrina (yeah especially you Bong Revilla… calling someone a maniac, that includes you!!!)

Katrina, katrina, katrina is the story of most of our long time hidden fantasies but now no longer Hayden anymore. Fed by a hypocritical attitude of a culture raised by media sensationalism and crass commercialism based on aberrant notion of women and sexuality, we are all mostly guilty of the same.
Katrina should be given not just the sympathies but really genuine concern. We indeed should love her for being strong enough to face the horrors and aftermath of the scandal and start to confront all its effects. By doing this she may have already also begun to contribute to saving a bit of our own inner weaknesses.
Under this same kind of situation, it wont be easy to really find love again. But she can find it again if only we have found it in our selves to really face up to this same predicament in our culture.
Beyond all measure she is really lovable, and maybe will always be, just for facing up to this whole situation

hay…mga pilipino…pero, sympathy s due only to those who deserve it..c katrina,its just publicity.yong mga senator and officials y not solve also other scandals around d philippines…they just wanted to gain support.u know election na..hehehehe.. KATRINA for philippine president 2010

“sympathy”, parang isang superhero na tutulong sa mga totoong nangangailangan. si katrina? no time for my super hero to help her…. eh sa scandal na nangyari eh wala nang lakas pa ang superhero ko para tulungan sya sa kanya umanung pagkabagsak.. ang galing nya ngang sumayaw sa scandal nila eh…. but for sure may mga tao paring gustong tulungan sya para maging tagasunod ni hydden kho…..

Bakit hindi nya ibigay sa iba para malaman naman kung ano magagawa nung mahahalal pinuno sa bayan. Huwag na syang manggulo., O don nalang sya sa harap ng camera..

seriously, i cannot see the country represented by someone like noynoy!.. there wasn’t a hint of sincerity in the speech that he gave at the manila club. From the day cory died everything was tainted with politics. they could not even let the great leader be at peace. Erap was even waving outside his car during the march to the cemetery(the nerve!). Noynoy is nothing like cory aquino and definitely incomparable to ninoy by lightyears. everybody’s just making a big fuss of things and the people behind him are taking a ride with it for they probably have plans that would benefit nobody but themselves.

And finally “Lakas picks Teodoro” as the ruling bet in 2010 election. Are you surprised? Not me… I predicted this would happen 9 (nine) months ago. I even went further to say that he would win the election on account of the:
1. Attracting the super-rich money
Being a Cojuangco, an elite political family similar to the Kennedys of the US, he would surely attract the support of the super-rich. This is not to say that he is also smart if not smarter than Noynoy
Stop kidding ourselves that the mainstream or the middle class can match the money of the rich. Look at Obama: his 700 million $ campaign funds, 80 % came from the rich and 20% from the internet-based middle class. The mainstream still follows the flow of money: money begets more money.
2. Military and police support
This is no brainier. Gibo, being the DND chief, would likely gets the above support. As Enrile said these groups are the “most organized” and Garci would say that the “use of their personnel and vehicles” would do wonder to “winning ” an election. I won’t go into that but all things being equal these groups won’t allow Gibo being robbed off of victory.
3. Like his cousin Noynoy, Gibo is untainted and as white as the wind-driven snow. I don’t know for how long when he (or Noynoy) gets to be the president. You could say the same thing to all the past presidents: Cory, FVR, ERAP, and Gloria.They were all decent persons to begin with but gave us the same rotten government. Think of the Kamag-anak inc., did to Cory as Amare deal to FVR; as jueteng payola to ERAP and as raping the constitution (among the many) to Gloria.
Gibo would win because the alternative is Noynoy who is the same cut as he.
Rod
Because Governor Singson made a mistake of taking for his wife [?] someone who believes in total sexual Liberalism or freedom, in short Manyakis[?].
He should have killed her. Of course, that is if he has always been loyal to her.
Her rights is his rights. We are in the era of equal right for sexes.
Rod
Of course gov Singson still has problem with the law, because even prostitutes and sex maniacs have been granted their human rights.
Rod
Dont you know that old Filipino custom says that it is insult or declaration of war when another male trespass a house where the master is not present?
That the the woman should never allow any male visitor inside the house, not even her inlaws, [unless there is prior instruction from her husband] as that, by itself, constitutes disloyalty to her husband?
I guess some people still value old Filipino customs.
athena
If Cory had no accomplishment before she became president, it was understandable since she was not a political figure then, but for Noynoy to have no accomplishments for her many years of being a public servant-congressman and senator, is totally unacceptable. At least a candidate for presidency have a track record of accomplishment as a government official, or a least, he had a cause he fought and stood for, etc. I’ve never heard of these in Noynoy. It’s sad,that he had no record of having made a difference to our country. However, he is simple, moral, and open to dialogue. There is no one to choose from among the other Presidentiables, aside from Noynoy. Manny Villar only thinks of enriching his own business, Teodoro, who is he? he just suddenly emerge. Erap-Dacer case,etc.
athena
I totally don’t sympathize Katrina and I hate Bong Revilla defending her, when he himself is a great womanizer, and had a child with another woman within marriage. Shame on you senator. Katrina did the act,knowingly, freely and willingly. Siya pa ceguro and nag invite kay hayden. No one
good and moral man would sympatize her.
Taga Sampaloc
I read that Noynoy and ERAP are meeting to unite all oppositions excluding the “trapo”. I think Noynoy took exception by including ERAP in the meeting, the latter being the poster boy of… never mind.
We still don’t get it.All these talks about “winnability” have resulted to useless exercise in futility. Good ideas are not enough to win an election.You need money to grease your political wheels and keep them running:”foot soldiers” and TV ads to reach as many voters as you can.
The candidate with the most campaign money to spend wins- gold rules!
Expect that whoever is supported by the elite rich would get the most money to spend and win.
