Risk of playing second fiddle to potential losers

Potential presidential running mates should play shy to seduce into shaky tickets. They know it is not just the fly that has no one to advise it that follows the corpse down the grave; even the one with advisors can sink just as deep.

So far, the only potential running mate, who has been fingered publicly, Matuga MP Chirau Mwakwere, knows there is more to winning the presidential race than chest-thumping by those inebriated by ambition. Mwakwere would rather eye the Kwale County Senate than being drugged into a ticket with a double-edged potential.
