  From day one Kalonzo proved to be self-seeking politician who does not wear national outfit. He wasn't sympathetic to those who were being massascred, instead he rushed to State House to apply for VP. The question is, was Kibaki sworn on daylight for the whole world to witness or under the cover of darkness? Kalonzo is a green snake in the cover of faithful. Standard, you deserve media GOLD!

  I have no mercy on the folks above telling us about Kalonzo. Tell you what, Kalonzo will never be the president of Kenya in a 100 years. All Kalonzo thinks about is "Him" The guy is a loser. Look how he rushed to support Kibaki!

  The STANDARD has an obsession with KALONZO BASHING and any personality from the VPs community. Indeed the STANDARD has some KAMBASOME issues to tackle.

  Whatever is said we or most of us know that East African Standard Newspaper speaks for ODM. When time comes for hunting down the provokers/insiders of violence, the newspaper will be have serious problems. It will be more than Michuki John did. Looking at the Standard you would think that since they are older that those Radio Stations, they would be decent. The editor is an ODM

  The Vice President is Kenya's best hope. Attempts to throw mud at him only show the desperation of his detractors. ODM was built on tribalism that is why they are afraid the VP's community reconciliation efforts could shatter their tribal alliance. They view certain tribes as their slaves but the VP speaks to all Kenyans with a clean heart and clean hands.

  I support the 'calling-out' of the VP by the mentioned gentlemen and disagree with this article. Kalonzo should be the VP of the whole of Kenya. Why is he advocating for tribal alliances at this point? And someone should remind him that he should be hard at work discharging his duties as VP. What is his use being VP if all his obsessed with is the 2012 polls?

  Columnists should not leave the VP-alone Kaplich Barsito's article is misleading the country.He should know that Mr.Wipper shall never lead this country and he should know that the VP only moves between provinces,central and Eastern.Does he know that the VP has not openly stepped in Nyanza even for official duty?

  Media has in the recent past started to be partisan in several aspects and this will be a great disaster to this country if not addressed immediately.

  Spot on. These guys are VP haters. They talk of blood coalition but never tell us who caused the blood in the first place. They will fall on their heads and burn by their tails. Go on VP, no mans is the annointed one for 2012.
