Had it been Democratic Progressive Party, people would not have voted them out. And now it stands as Dissident Peoples Party.

Democracy doesn't work that way. After two terms in office an electorate often tires and votes for an alternative.

Ma has not done that well - approval rates appear to be dropping. If he wants to be President he needs to lead, ergo knock stupid lawmakers from his own party on the head and make them play ball. Also he needs to not let China dictate how talks will occur and get the US to carry on with promised arms sales, lest it be left to the new administration which could delay them even further.

The DPP mismanages the economy where they claim Taiwan mismanages ties. But who's in power now?

partly agree with what she said, but people decide to vote u or not is up to what u did, not what u said! bottom line is u anyway can't steal people's money.

The KMT proved that's wrong - they stole Taiwan's money for decades and then blocked changes in the law to reverse that.

Maybe! But however trust the people, people is judge of super-supreme court - basic democracy principle. people decide who's guilty and that's how this civilization work.
