NP Rank:
Singh is King? Or is Sonia Gandhi the real queen
Singh is King? Or is Sonia Gandhi the real queen 5th April 2009P { MARGIN: 0px 0px 5px } BODY { MARGIN: 0px }Elections are just around the corner and everyone has started wooing the voters. L K Advani has taken a cue from Obama by starting his own blog. He is advertising heavily on the net and I can see his banners almost everywhere. BJP started making phone calls with the recorded voice of Atal Bihari Vajpayee in the last elections to start the use of mobile phones as a campaign tool. This time too I have started getting SMS and the first one made me think not about the contestents but the Congress and its leadership.
Manmohan Singh may have been the most educated, intelligent and the smartest prime minister we ever had and may be the least powerful as well. No one credits him for any of his accomplishments and he is never seen as the real leader. The real leader in Sonai Gandhi. Sonia Gandhi will step aside when Rahul Gandhi is ready to stake his claim on the primeministership and till then we will have "temp" prime ministers like Manmohan Singh, something like Anil Kumble as the test captain till M S Dhoni was ready for it.
I am on the Do not Disturb list but I guess none cares about it, not even our politicians.
The most recent example fo this is the SMS I got. Please not it is "Sonia Gandhi" who has selected Gurdas Kamat not "Manmohan Singh", not the "party leadership".
