Winston Tubman, the man who replaced international football icon George Weah as standard bearer of the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC), says he joined the party to remove its &#8220;negative image&#8221; ahead of the 2011 elections.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking during a tour of CDC&#8217;s headquarters in Congo town Saturday, Cllr. Tubman stressed that he joined the party to erase the negative notion by some politicians that without George Weah, CDC cannot make a difference during the impending presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>Cllr. Tubman, fresh from his primary victory in Kakata, described such a notion as false, and promised not to mislead or disappoint CDC&#8217;s former political leader, Ambassador George Weah, in their newly consummated political marriage.<\/p>\n<p>The counselor told party supporters at their Congo Town office that crossing over to the CDC was not because he could do more than Weah could do, but that &#8220;joining the Congress for Democratic Change is to strengthen the party as well as remove the negative image that people have held about Weah and the party.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He urged CDCeans to put aside their differences and join hands to ensure victory in the impending 2011 elections.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, CDC Secretary General Acarius Gray urged partisans to rise up to the cause of CDC, adding: &#8220;There will be no monkey work bamboo draw in the 2011 presidential election.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With Cllr. Tubman now in the driver&#8217;s seat, Mr. Acarious Gray said, &#8220;CDC now has all necessary qualities and credentials that will ensure victory in the 2011 elections.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read More:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201105101369.html\" title=\"CDC's 'Negative Image' Set for Change-Tubman\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CDC&#8217;s &#8216;Negative Image&#8217; Set for Change-Tubman<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> New Democrat (Monrovia) Peter N.
