Wasn't there noose a few days ago that this K Baitha character - MP with the largest # of criminal cases against him - was joining lotus? And the concomitant sanctimony that got sprayed around as a result? Well, good news is that he's not joining lotus after all. whew.

This Ram Kripal Yadav (RKY) guy looks complete opportunist, why sudden flurry of people who has abused Modi in past into BJP? I want to know how NaMo feels about this, going by pics of RKY touching feet of rajnath, he comes across as spineless opportunist, I mean he must be elder to Rajnath, no self respect!

The Tejaswini Sriramesh who defeated Nidde Gowda oops, Deve Gowda in 2004 elections has joined BJP. In 2004, she even created a teary scene in Parliament and begged Sonia to be PM. She is even rumored to be in the camp of Congress strongmen DK Shivakumar.

I am really puzzled her entry into BJP. Probably, Vokkaliga camp in Congress might ditch KA Congress once it is proven that Congress is not a political force after 2014 results. I think Congress will split into many groups and probably this Tejaswini move seems to be some sort of hedging. But BJP needs to be careful of Trojans.

This is something NaMo gladly acknowledges, that in politics one need never think it's over. NaMo knows that politics for most Indian politicians is a family business and he doesn't really condemn it. He speaks against it only when an opposition party revolves only around that.

NaMo is fine with this. NaMo wanted to take over the leadership of Yaduvansh and Ram Kripal Yadav's entry into BJP provides him with a reach deep into RJD territory.

For NaMo it is the capture of an aircraft carrier of the enemy! The aircraft carrier may have been pounding you till now, but from now on it is an asset.

This will hit Lalu hard, and I would say it would reduce Lalu's support among Yadav's to possibly less than 50%. And a leader who cannot get the support of the whole tribe, ceases to be a leader after a while.

Not many pics from Mamata Rally and attendance!

I think Mamata would now have a new found respect for NaMo who got 2 lakh Bengalis to attend his rally. Regional bosses sometimes forget they are only regional bosses.

I think it was the other way around. Anna is desperately looking for straws to clutch. He is still in denial that the mobilisation that came with the 'Anshan' in Delhi was managed by AK. The fact that the Mumbai anshan turned out to be a damp squib is when it perhaps dawned on him that he has been played. But he still wants to make sure.

So he wrote to everyone. What he wrote in his letter or plea, no one knows. MB responded. She could have thought she will be able to rally crowds in Delhi on the back of Anna. Did not happen. Now you will see her sidelining Anna and the poor old man will just have to lump it and go back to Ralegaon. I feel sorry for him - an old man who was going about his business in a remote village where everyone listened to him...dragged to the city and its politics by a crafty, evil snake...now going back within nothing to show.

Which leads me to think...what if Ford Foundation did not fund AK. What if the slimy, good-for-nothing actually conned Ford Foundation to fund him...making all kind of tall promises. :rotfl:

After this bungle-up nobody would be touching Anna with a barge-pole. Anna becomes totally irrelevant. Nobody can trust him.

Anna is not a mass leader. He is just a morality mascot. If mascots become unreliable, then leaders stop renting them!

That's good and we don't need useless Gandhians (good or bad) as their policies are irrelevant to this era.

Not just this Khujliwal, it seems his mentor Anna is also an attention wh0re. Deserted Mamta today because of the thin crowds. It seems all these self styled 'Gandhians' want is media & public attention and want to be on top of their private moral high ground, public jaaye bhaad me.

he has always been so.. in MH, hardly anyone pays attention towards him for past 10 years. many skeletons in his cupboard too, ppl here know.. He is one reason why MH was saved from AAP and IAC crap. Else conditions were ripe and Shivsena-BJP in complete tatters.

She is a leftist, long term Lootyens insider, for a very long time she was part of the anti-NaMo club, and suddenly she becomes more NaMo than NaMo? Convenient, ca?

Exactly Sir, The core Namo team know this very well and thats why they dont feed her. She is trying her best to warm up to the jingos by putting out news against D4 et al and thinking that this will fetch her favors with core Hindu BJP cadre and supporters.

If Mamata Didi could not gather 272 people for her rally, how is she going to collect 272 MPs in Lok Sabha to become PM!

And if she is not becoming a PM, then she ought to say beforehand, who is she is going to support for PM! And if she is doing neither, how can West Bengal people give her their vote, as they themselves don't know how the vote is going to be used! What is the use of electing an MP who would not partake in any govt. formation!

I think beside NaMo's seat, which by the way, he would easily win, the most important seat in this election is Bangalore South where Ananth Kumar of BJP is fighting against Nandan Nilekani of Congress.

Nandan Nilekani may be a man even more beholden or sold out to the West, than people have suspected Dr. Manmohan Singh to be!

Most of the Congress faces in Indian Cabinet that we see, would be gone after 2014 elections, at least from Lok Sabha. They dynasty would be looking for an easy exit. Sonia Gandhi does not have the energy or health to look after Congress any more, and Rahul Gandhi after the elections would have zero respect from Congress men! So one can't expect him to hold Congress together when it is in opposition under his control nor can one expect him to lead Congress into an election win after 2014.

So the leadership of the Congress is going to fall in the hands of the "respectable" Nandan Nilekani.

So it is absolutely vital for NaMo to finish off this danger before it really takes form. Ananth Kumar must win!

MuraliRavi-ji,
Agree with you that she is trying to warm up to jingos. What I can't understand is why. She is Lootyens insider. She hates RSS (for 20+ years now). She hated NaMo until 2012 at least. Manushi was publishing anti-NaMo articles for a very very long time. She has never demonstrated any love for Hinduism. Why is she suddenly pro-Modi? What changed? Lootyens does not function on patriotism, or ideology - it is all about personal gain. Patriotism, ideology, thinking of country is all for middle class people, and Hindu afficionados, who personally stand to benefit very little from NaMo's accession, but are concerned for the country. So - what is that Lootyens insider doing, taking sides with Hindutva-vadis? What does she stand to gain by NaMo's victory? That is what worries me, and I have no answer to it.
