The main news today seems to indicate that Sen. Mar Roxas (and possibly the rest of the Liberal Party) is now back in action.
After shying away from the limelight after his loss to now VP-elect Jojo Binay, Sen. Mar Roxas is now back in action, seemingly at a very influential status to President-elect Aquino (Roxas heads transition team. Aquino tasks him to direct transfer of power). However, the news also featured a comment by a spokesperson of VP Jojo Binay and gave the latter positive treatment as well. Roxas +1, Binay +1.
Swiss-Filipino rescued so swiftly he hardly knew it - is a story of the rescue of kidnap victim from Zamboanga.

Aquino: Please, I’m not superman - a piece from an Aquino fan, Mr. Gil Cabacungan, who repeated the spin that Aquino has a huge mandate ("biggest electoral mandate in the country's history") and reminds everyone of the Aquino roots. Aquino +1.

The scores:

Aquino: 0
Arroyo: -4
Today, the Inquirer Front Page seems to be enjoying kicking Arroyo on the butt on her way out. Meanwhile, even after the elections, the contest between Binay and Roxas goes on and is proving to be an interesting watch.
