Santo Domingo.- Opposition PRD party president Miguel Vargas has yet to respond to his siblings call to join its candidate Hipólito Mejia’s campaign, as Vargas’ wife continues defending his absence on Twitter.

“Being an ardent supporter of a party doesn’t make you someone who doesn’t discern between good and evil. Dignity above all,” tweeted Vargas’ wife Angelita, with just seven days to the polls and has yet to voice his support for Mejía.

Vargas spokesman Nelson Marte told newspaper Listin when the PRD president returns from abroad there’ll be a response to the new reconciliation effort by the organization’s leaders.

Angelita’s statement, on Twitter @angelitagdv, comes one day after Mejía met with Vargas’ siblings the tycoons Tony and Janet Rivera in central La Vega, to announce their support and ask the PRD president to join the campaign.

“Miguel Vargas Maldonado’s physical integration in this final and crucial stage of the campaign will undoubtedly consolidate his leadership as president of the organization, and will avert the sinking of his brilliant and promising political career,” Tony Rivera said.

Vargas the only intelligent one in the bunch and the only candidate worth voting for. More power to you Miguel, you were screwed by your own party. This country never fails to disappoint.

The damage has already been done, it is too little to late to try to change the people to vote for Hipo, there is only 4 more days left for campaign and Vargas is staying out of the pictures for a good reason, he doesn't wants to be part of the losing team. Josean stop insulting the PLD that way, have heard the expression that says that one that has nothing to say always use foul lenguage to try to make his point and that is exactly what you are doing. You don't see the PLD supporters insulting you leader so i suggest that you do as. Regardless of what the first lady is a woman and if you have any respect for the ladies you will never use those types of lenguages.

Fantastic "endorsement" from previous rabid hard core advocates of Balaguer, now looking to keep sucking on the governmental honeys from a desperate HM.
It's is no coincidence that Janet Rivera, (Miguel's half sister) married to Hipolito's son as well, and Tony Rivera, a lackluster, ex-PRSC senator, trying to fill his daddy's shoes, are now "convenience" siblings and half brothers to Miguel Vargas.
Campaign is almost over, so Miguel Vargas, in a magnanimous display of support, for his own party sneaky presidential candidate, should make a public statement to vote for HM, as an afterthought, and parting poisoned gift, to HM.

Josean ,,do you really want the wife of the President to dress badly ?? I think Miguel Vargas is happy to keep quiet and let Mejia lose for himself ,,Vargas is quite enjoying the sunshine at his Casa de Campo home ..strange how these socialists can all have homes there along side Amable

Josean stop being so envious. Your president's wife in the U.S also wears very extremely expensive clothes so. It is Ok for a first lady to represent.

Oh that's right!!

You don't know much about it!!
