Prices of daily commodities may have soared, the story of contained inflation may be something ridiculous, the farmers may have died in hordes due to the country's new neo-liberal economic policies, but the people have voted the Congress to power. Reason? I've yet to find out. The one thing I suspect is that the people hate L.K.Advani and his party BJP, who have shredded the secular fabric of the country.
So you have no other choice but to see Manmohon Singh, Sonia's most obedient man, as the king for next five years.
I'm happy Advani's dream of being PM has been dashed for ever. Did you notice that he had inserted "Advani as PM" ads pervasively all across the net? Another upside of the election result is that Sharad Powar, another asshole who aspired to become PM, has also been screwed.
But the debacle of the fake Marxists' party CPM in Bengal has really given me a high. It has got only 15 seats while TMC and ally have bagged 26 seats. It's very likely the so-called Marxists would be totally wiped out in coming Bidhan Sabha election.
I had a very good impression of Prakash Karat. But he's a renegade, and is devoid of any principles. He's going to pay a heavy price for his misdeeds.

Election India 2009: The Leftists
Leftists who were part of the UPA government for the better part of its tenure are in an unenviable position in Election India in 2009. While they are far far way from the masses because of their anti-people policies, their top leader Prakash Karat is busy cobbling a hotchpotch Third Front.
The leftists are morally bankrupt so much so that they have hardly an electoral issue this year except that cliched, over-trumpeted reforms. People are no longer buying this reform thing. In Kerala, the party is sharply divided over ideological issue. In West Bengal, the leaders are visibly nervous, and are uttering nonsense in public meetings. Buddhadeb Bhattachaya looks like a clown on screen. The so-called Marxists have to pay back the price for their betrayal of the masses.
Interstingly, they now fall back heavily on Jyoti Basu, the once-charismatic leader who is in the throes of death so to speak. How sad and cruel that the leftists are dragging the frail and wobbling nonagenarian on to the dais, and make him appeal to the masses for their mandate in elction 2009 in India!
