DPP infighting and the 11 bandits

A petition was started some time ago by some DPP legislators which aims to prevent the DPP wil not nominate the "11 bandits" for office (background on them here and here), including Shin Fu-hsiung (沈富雄). Shin called a press conference again recently to complain and ask the party chairman Yu Shyi-kun (游錫堃) to say a word or two more in defense of them, and suggested he's bowing to pressure from the "deep green camp" at the expense of the party for his own presidential ambitions..

I suspect most of them won't get nominated.

沈富雄：路線可辯論人格不容抹殺
　

（中央社記者李明宗台北一日電）部分民主進步黨員發起連署，要求民進黨中央不得提名「十一寇」。遭基層黨員點名的前民進黨籍立法委員沈富雄今天說，路線可辯論，人格不容抹殺，相煎何須太急，難道民進黨主席游錫（方方土）不能說句話，希望大家適可而止嗎？

沈富雄上午在立法院召開記者會表示，這些連署的人說民進黨籍立委洪奇昌（不分區）是「西進昌」、前行政院客家委員會主任委員羅文嘉是「背骨小孩」，這些都還可討論，但民進黨籍立委蕭美琴（台北市）遭指為「中國琴」，民進黨籍立委魏明谷（彰化縣）被說成是「太監谷」，就太沒天理與沒良心。

他說，游錫（方方土）對這種現象只說「人民的聲音我聽到了」，難道不能對這些事多講一兩句話嗎？難道不能說對這種人格污衊與抹殺，希望大家適可而止嗎？曾幾何時民進黨變成這樣，游錫（方方土）只想選總統，可對深綠低頭到這種程度嗎？
