Referendum maneuvers

In response to Bruce Jacob's open letter to Hsieh and Ma, Frank Hsieh today said that if the KMT really was interested in returning to the UN, then Hsieh could "consider" supporting the KMT referendum. He's just floating the idea without committing, but note that he didn't require the KMT to actually support the DPP's own initiative as a condition for the DPP to support the KMT's.

Ma, on the other hand, said that he will still support the KMT-initiated referendum to re-enter the UN but will not support the DPP's referendum bid.
