Definitely. It remained the policy of Congress (since its birth) to appease minority for vote. This party will always be crying for incidence like post-godhra, vadodara etc. Incidence like elimination of hindus in J&K, Varanasi blast, Delhi, Mumbai, blasts, infiltrations across the border are petty issues for the party as these dont bring profit to their business.

eventually, yes. no empire lasts forever. it will hafta be a silent takeover (nonviolent). starts with control of politics reverting to the republic we were supposed to be but never were. next is the economy, basing it on goods rather than variables.\nhttp://www.philipdru.com/griffin2_stream.html

It depends a lot on the alliance. Hopefully, MDMK (Vaiko) may play a vital role in deciding this. Similarly, DMDK (Vijayakanth) is also expected to split the votes. But, JJ(Amma) can win only if she is flexible enough (and give some respect and seats) to grasp the alliances and break the opponent integrity. Moreover, as now DMK is having 7 party alliance. So, now it is in better position to win the election. But anyway, we can expect the sudden turns in the forth comming election and it will be very interesting.

No such possibility for now. At present all parties with Congress and BJP as their common enemies are talking abt third alliance rather than front. But only if they form the third front with common agenda, policies, etc as Mr. Prakash Karat, General Secretary of CPI(M) has said, will the third front which may be formed can dream of forming a govt. at the centre.

not a very good chance, from the looks of it.  the opinion polls from january 18/19 look like this:\n\nconservative - 36%\nliberal - 29%\nnew democrat - 19%\nbloc quebecois - 11%\ngreen - 6%\n\nso the conservatives are going to need to drum up another 14 points in 2 days in order to make up a majority government.  certainly, they are going to win the largest number of ridings, but if the liberals and NDP form a coalition the conservatives will be in the minority.

The Manmohan Govt. can last for full five years only if if forfeits its idealogies regarding privatisation.

This election in tamil nadu could b a very close one and i predict tamil nadu may get a hung assembly after a long time, ie after the first elections way back in 1952. There is no political wave today in tamil nadu which is usually present( 1991- Rajiv Gandhi sympathy wave, 1996- anti incumbency wave against Jayalalitha). \n  \n    Moreover the anti incumbency wave which was present against jayalalitha during lok shaba elections that saw her party lose all seats, is not such a big factor today. The reasons for that being her recall of all the controversial laws like anti conversion bill, etc. Her actions like free cycle for school students, Good relief for Tsunami and flood, Absence of Rowdisim and caste conflicts in Tamil Nadu has strengthened her case. She has also been strengthened by the alliance with MDMK of Vaiko.\n\n   Meanwhile the strong alliance, the angry of goverenment workers and muslims over ADMK, is what tilts the balance in favour of Karunathi led DMK. The arrival of actor turned politician Vijaykanth into the political arena has also caused few upsets in poll calculations. Though his party may not win too much seats he could end up making a dent in the vote share of both the dravidian parties. The fact that BJP is standing alone could crearte sort of worry for ADMK over its traditional Upper caste Votes.\n\nSince the election is so close, both the parties has started Announcing lot of promises like free colout tv, Free rice, etc. Vaiko's constant attack on Sun TV network run by brother of Union Broad casting minister Dayanithi Maran and his replies to it has also made the poll intresting. Comedy scenes of the poll are being provided by another actor turned politician Kartik, who has assumed office as state president of Forward Bloc.\n\nthis is how people are going to vote in elections\n\nVery rich/ upper middle class/ poor = AIADMK alliance\nMiddle class/ Workers/Goverenment staff= DMK alliance\n\nMY prediction\n\nAIADMK ALLIANCE = 130\nDMK ALLIANCE   = 103\nVIJAYKANTH PARTY= 01 or 02.

The UPA has fared well when compared to the NDA which was full of Coruupt politicians and during their tenure india saw almost more than 100 cases of high profile corruption,but the UPa shuld do more and show the people of the country that they are going to survive for complete five years and will come bck again for 5 years undr the leadership of Mrs.Sonia Gandhi as Prime Minister

I'm not sure if its ambitious or not but its an insult to the people of tamil nadu. Thepoliticians think that they can get away by promising freebies instead of any constructive manifestos. No one party has anything concrete in its manifesto about improving the education system or public welfare in general like improving the roads etc.

I highly doubt it. Unless he gave some training to his brother-in-law, Gopinath Munde. Or maybe his son grew up learning these things and may join politics some day. I really hope there can be someone who has at least half the skills that Pramod Mahajan had - we really need someone like that for the country's future.

No. The elected candidates are mostly those who contested as independent candidates. The voters are not going to be guided on communal or caste lines basing on which various political parties had given party tickets to candidates most of whom have lost even their deposit. It is a warning to the Samajbadi Party of Mulayam Singh Yadav who has been dependent on Muslim votes by appeasement to them.

India does if they the country is in good hands. A majority of India's already exploding population within the next 20 years will be the youth. That's why.

DMK will win this time. Educated people can surely come to politics but they are not rich enough to participate in an election!!!!!
