Nice move signaling younger rebels to line up or ship out. When resolving intra party issues, no point in throwing out all the rebels, grumpy whiners or incompetent members. Split them, throw out some and retain some useful.

Go for it Murali-ji. My friends are voting for L Ganesan too. Doesnt seem like a charismatic character - all the votes are really for Modi. From what I hear, BJP has a good chance to win South Chennai

Got word through the grapevine that there is going to be a media smear-campaign against Mahesh Giri on Monday! He is the BJP candidate from East Delhi, who is an Art of Living devotee. He was a former Swami-ji before he joined Sri Sri. He is contesting with the blessings of Sri Sri. His opponents are Rajmohan Gandhi & the son of Shiela Dixit. Its a tough fight!

Spread the word on Twitter to watch out. Some AOL volunteers are already starting to spread the word on Facebook

I had tweeted the following yesterday about the anti-national Rajmohan Gandhi. Plz RT and spread the word: https://twitter.com/VogonPoem/status/449765152993193985

Buzz from Rajasthan Congress and BJP units. BJP expected to win 20-21 seats. Sachin Pilot, Girija Vyas will lose. Biggest win for BJP will come from Rajsamand. Betting rate for BJP is 20 paisa there. Among Congress CP Joshi can win from Jaipur rural over Rajyavardhan Singh Rathod due Jats not voting for a Rajput. Rajbala Ola, DIL of late Sis Ram Ola will win. Jaswant Singh may find it tough in Barmer.

In East Delhi the satta rate for Mahesh Giri is 48 paisa and is expected to win over Sandeep Dixit.

The last month left for elections. One interesting thing will happen. As elections come near, opinion polls will begin to show less number of seats for NDA and more for Cong and Third Front. Expectations would be set for EVM fraud. This is a pattern I am witnessing for the last few state elections too. While surveys six months before the elections begin by showing majority for BJP and NDA, slowly lead of Cong and Cong supporting parties begins to grow as elections come closer. Very suspicious. This happens in every elections since EVM were introduced.

This ABP_Nielsen poll has rather high credibility, I find. And they're giving lotus 207 seats this time.

Their sampling, analysis methodology and org integrity etc are impeccable. Apparently. The record too. Here's an example from the last assembly polls...

They gave BJP 110 seats in Dec assembly poll in Rajasthan where after the results BJP got 160+

Meanwhile, as we speak, dynasty campaign has quietly gathered ~~steam~~ gas while we weren't looking and is now threatening to rival the namo wave... Here's from pappu's recent ghaziabad rally... Raj barber must be sleeping a contended man now...

such pix are strictly censored by the MSM for AAP and Congi rallies (to hide the truth) and for Namo also(to hide the reverse truth).

NDA should appoint local photographers all over the place to sneak in and lay bare these photos at each and every rally from this angle.

I think that most of the people on BRF are upper middle class and we may be unable to fully imagine & comprehend the huge anger of masses at massive unrelenting inflation, lack of jobs and shameless corruption which is pouring salt on wounds. NAMO wave "might" become tsunami come election day.

Whatever pollsters may say, I will be surprised if NaMo doesn't win 272 on his own.

My priceless advise.

Do not engage on the size of the corruption.

Engage on the facts which have been decided by the relevant jurisdictional authority. There are other cases pending but then you can always put up a counter question if they do not first admit that they have already lost once on facts.

Then they will bring in the rule of law/high moral grounds/sacrifice a la Kejriwal/Parliament not allowed to work etc. - That is when you can get away like NaMo with pointing how how 'Licence to Kill =/= Gun to Kill'.

Pls feel free to treat it as worthless if you are not satisfied

^^^To put this in perspective - MMS was the darling of the middle class courtesy the 1991 reforms. Hence it is fitting that the current downturn under MMS stewardship hit the middle class hard where it hurts the most. Had this downturn not happened, MMS would always have remained the darling of the chattering middle class (even if theyre were other Bombay or Kaluchak type attacks) and provided the CongI with the credibility to stage a comeback at a future date.

Decline in Defence spending, deterioriating border security, EJism, IM etc. is just the icing on the cake in the current situation...an afterthought actually!....not the actual root cause of middle class anger.....now being used to justify their angst when it they who made the first mistake in 2004-2009 elections.

Sort of like the SA folks blaming the system for the breakup of AP when it is they who elected the CongI for successive terms inspite of Telangana being made a specific poll promise in 2009.

+++++++++++++++

Now in this election CongI has promised reservations in private sector in it's poll manifesto. If inspite of this Brahmins of Allahabad and vote for CongI just Cuz' their parents were doing it, they deserve the returns.

Baramara district in Rajasthan has many oil discoveries. Better watch out for this one.

At times there seems to be certain loosening of dharmic lifestyle in regions where oil/mineral wealth are discovered. AP is an example where temple monies are looted by pseudo secular corrupt government and no one says a word.

Very few like Raani Ahalyabaaisaaheb Holkar who made most of her wealth for dharmic cause, even post independence.

plus 1..

reporting from ground zero of western coast of mother, part of campaign now through means of old sangh networks. the anger against congis is extremely palpable. have been speaking to auto-rikshaw wallas and thelawalas (ppl with hand-carts selling stuff on roadsides). Muslims are showing confusion (while they are not - there is clear madrasa mobilization and they will be voting en-block to defeat BJP), while hindus are beginning to show signs of desperation. Shivsena is running one of the most fantastic campaign on ground, totally below the radar. One of the most powerful response to imran masood guy came from uddhav thakre in form of simple question. He asked imran (and muslims and congis)," when you ppl will be killing our namo, imagine what we will be doing to you ppl" - all this on the record.

MNS has gone offline, it seams. hardly any campaign seen of MNS in past 5 days. I think they will put forth only a token fight. Uddhav is managing the campaign very well. It is too early to predict seats in western MH, but I am finding shivsena campaign more energetic than BJP. BJP will perhaps up the ante after one week or so. Shivsena has lot of ground to cover given the desertions. I am now slightly optimistic..

will be posting much less from now on until war is over..

Shiv Sena on Sunday (March 30)responded to Congress candidate from Saharanpur, Imran Masood's comment on Modi. In its mouthpiece Saamna, Shiv Sena today said the party wont be a mute spectator and that they do not fear to fight back. "If you get into Modi bashing do you expect us to be silent observers?", Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray asked in the party's mouthpiece.

Don't think Gorakhpur has enough Muslims. Only in NE Bihar, in the Kishanganj-Katihar-Araria is it possible. OTOH, Hailakandi-Karimganj in Assam is very possible. Also, Murshidabad-Dinajpur-Birbhum in WB.

^ 400% true; the difference is there is this variety of spineless creatures who prefer to sit on sidelines; they know that INC is too corrupt to be supported openly and for them Kejriwal was a godsend for they now had someone who could fit their search for a leader who was not corrupt as well as acceptable to his/her minority neighbor.

These ordinary folks who walk or travel for miles to listen to Sh. Modi Ji in this heat and dust, Do you think they will vote for Congress or its B teams when the time comes to press the button.
Not even ABV could command such connection with ordinary people across India. Imagine so called candidates for PMship starting from Mamta to JJ to NiKu to MSY and the Great LKA traveling outside their home state and finding even 100 people interested in them. AAP with all its media support and Anna's fasting finds it hard to collect few more than thousand people outside Delhi.
The last person to have such kind of following was perhaps Mrs. IG.
Myself and millions like me may not step out to listen to these meetings or watch news anymore but we all know who we are going to vote for in next 2-3 General Elections.
It is Sh.Modi ji for atleast 2-3 terms to set India on the right path again.

Modi's rally in Jammu was massive. People from far flung places travelled hours to hear him speak. Jammu constituency has 4 large districts out of which 2 are muslim majority (rajauri and poonch). if BJP can consolidate Hindu vote here, the BJP candidate will win by a handsome margin. Udhampur seat also looks winnable but needs hard work.

This is exactly what I think.
Considering AK-49 contesting from Varanasi and his sudden shift in attack from Congis to Modi since Jan this year has made it clear that he is going to eat more Congis votes and not BJP votes. As R Jaganathan said on Firstpost, Ak-49 is looking for the space created by potential vacuum from Modi's Congress Mukt strategy.
This is awesome.
Can we really have imagined about 1.5 years back that Cognis would be possibly wiped out this election !
