Gold cows are no longer idols in Taiwan, and the change comes none too soon. After the December 1991 elections for the National Assembly—the first time that body had been subject to full replacement since the 1947 elections in mainland China—it seemed that “gold cows” (moneyed interests bonded to the ruling party) would take up where martial law had left off. But now after the December 1992 elections for the Legislative Yuan, we can see that gold cows are no longer fashionable for public display. Their thick hides have taken verbal abuse from all sides, ruling and opposition parties alike, though those that have survived the test may still be bullish and looking forward to regaining their election investment through construction kickbacks, as usual. It seems the biggest problem for the gold cows is that the electorate can be bought once, twice, or thrice over, but does not stay bought
