Campaigning for Zimbabwean presidential election, 2008

Campaigning for the first round of the presidential election held in Zimbabwe on 29 March 2008 took place from February to March. There were three major candidates: President Robert Mugabe of the ruling Zimbabwe African National Union - Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF), Morgan Tsvangirai of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC, Tsvangirai faction), and the independent candidate Simba Makoni.
==Beginning of campaigning==
Mugabe declared on 12 February that he was "raring to go and raring to fly".〔("Mugabe 'raring to go' for election" ), Reuters (''IOL''), 12 February 2008.〕 Speaking at a rally in Beitbridge on 23 February, he likened Makoni to "a frog trying to inflate itself up to the size of an ox" that was sure to burst, while calling Tsvangirai a Western puppet. Predicting an easy victory for ZANU-PF, he vowed that "regime change" would never occur in Zimbabwe.〔("Mugabe lambasts challengers" ), Al Jazeera, 24 February 2008.〕 Mugabe launched his re-election campaign on 29 February in Harare〔("Mugabe vows to defeat 'two-headed political creatures' in Zimbabwe election" ), Associated Press (''International Herald Tribune''), 29 February 2008.〕 and presented ZANU-PF's election manifesto.〔("Mugabe partially admits failing Zimbabweans" ), SABC News, 29 February 2008.〕 He promised increased agricultural production and the reform and improvement of the mining sector,〔("Mugabe dubs poll rivals 'witches'" ), BBC News, 29 February 2008.〕 and he urged the party to acknowledge past failures, such as in the area of infrastructure development.〔 He said that ZANU-PF was united under his leadership: "the struggles within the party that have taken place, and in some cases little wars, have been settled. At the end of the day, we have this congregation with me at the head."〔
Tsvangirai launched his campaign and presented the MDC's election manifesto on 23 February in Mutare. Promising to deliver economic recovery, he said that the MDC had "studied this economy comprehensively and we know what is wrong with it", and that he could put "this economy back on its feet with 100 days of forming a democratic government". Mugabe and ZANU-PF, according to Tsvangirai, "belong() to the past", had "run out of ideas", and could not rescue the economy. Tsvangirai also said that he would place a priority on the creation of a new constitution. He argued that the people wanted total change and not merely partial reform, comparing the former to new clothes and the latter to patching up tattered clothes; this was viewed as a critical reference to Makoni's candidacy.〔Fikile Maphala, ("Tsvangirai launches campaign, economic revival tops agenda" ), newzimbabwe.com, 24 February 2008.〕
Speaking at a press conference in Bulawayo on 1 March, prior to the launch of Makoni's campaign, former Interior Minister Dumiso Dabengwa and former Speaker of Parliament Cyril Ndebele announced their support for Makoni.〔("Zanu-PF veterans side with Makoni" ), AFP (''IOL''), 1 March 2008.〕
