Wow. Real curve ball, here! It hasn’t shaken my support of the DPP or my faith in Tsai Ying-wen’s (蔡英文) presidential ability, but…

Chen Ting-fei (陳亭妃) completely fooled me into thinking she might be cute with this campaign poster!It’s been up for months right outside my apartment, and, ya know, puts a smile on my face every morning on the way to work. Like, look at this team of ladies! Now that’s something I can endorse, beauty and brains! Boom!
Turns out, it’s yet another case of the dreaded “Great campaign photo/Not-so-great Google search” (shaking my head). Nooooo!
I mean, as a citizen of Tainan, she still gets my vote. I haven’t seen any sure-fire Palins rolling out on the KMT ticket, so Chen’s vote is safe with me. Plus, I kinda dig the fact that she used to be in television. It’s as if she took my exact career path, except actually accomplished everything I ever wanted to achieve.
But even after all this, and in true Taiwanese political spirit, I’ll still give her a patented fist-pump!
P.S. Does this post totally kill my Taiwanese political credibility???
