What doesn't work for the veshti wearing potential PM candidate

What doesn’t
(even if UPA pulls off a third win)
- Unknown in Hindi-speaking ‘Bharat’; MPs see him as “snooty, impatient, argumentative, dismissive”
- Flourishing legal career has potential for conflict of interest; hauled over coals in 2G scam before SC clean chit
- Operation against Naxals may not have left 10, Janpath happy; killing of 76 CRPF jawans blamed on bad handling
- Friendless in Congress; his own 2009 poll ‘win’ by 3,354 votes from Sivaganga has been challenged in court
- DMK won’t let him steal thunder in home state Tamil Nadu; tough stand on ‘Hindutva terror’ is red rag to BJP
- Telangana crisis, which might cost Congress dear, laid squarely at his ‘clueless’ midnight announcement in 2008
- Son Karti features in WikiLeaks admitting to giving “a few sops” to villagers; also under scrutiny in Aircel-Maxis deal
- Seen by “loyal” Congressmen as overambitious; North Block ‘bugging’ episode, rift with Pranab

I'm all for Chidu but I recognize that nobody in the Congress (or for that matter, any other party) will accept him.
In any event, the Gandhis are digging their heels in. So it's game over as far as the Congress is concerned.

The consensus is that the BJP will land around 200 seats, leaving it short of 70 odd seats for a simple majority. Unless the coalition dynamic changes in the next five months, I see chaos ahead.

Chidambaram is a different sort of CONartist. His kind of corruption is more dangerous. He is also a divisive figure. He is awkward when he peddles the interests of the dynasty. The average CONmen dislike him (may be not as much as they dislike Modi).
If CONwoman projects him as the PM candidate, her party may not even get enough MPs to be the official opposition in the next parliament.

I think India at this stage can do better without these Harvard, Cambridge graduated elites. It needs someone who can connect with the common man.

He too got a degree from Cambridge, right? again, if he was power hungry he would've been PM by now, all he had to do was throw a tantrum.Hellsangel wrote:Hmm. Who could that be? Oh right!

Is that because of NaMo or in spite of NaMo; if it is because of him then they better look for an alternativeMerlot Daruwala wrote:

Isn't that how Indian politics at the center work or worked? be it is Congress or good old Janata party. Do you have any comments or views of your own, other than sitting on the fence & criticizing others?!Hellsangel wrote:confuzzled dude wrote:He too got a degree from Cambridge, right? again, if he was power hungry he would've been PM by now, all he had to do was throw a tantrum.Hellsangel wrote:Hmm.
