BJP candidates who were arm twisted to part with Rs 1 crore for a ticket suffered a triple whammy. The first was when the Hoggenkkal issue blew up in their faces. The second was the reservation verdict of the SC. The third is the arrival of SM Krishna.
These BJP candidates are now not spending any money. They know the mood of the state
Yediruppa propaganda suggests that he received the blessing from a senior Lingayat pontiff and now assured of CMs chair. What he didn't disclose that he was CM for 10days, he spent his time visiting temples and getting blessings, including this particular pontiff. Still he came a cropper.
We need a CM who is a CEO like SM Krishna. Not one spending time visiting temples and seeking blessings which does not materialize
If Yediruppa wants to spend his time visiting temples he should be a sadhu in Himalayas and not eye the CM chair, which in any case would elude him

Kris, We are a democrasy which means that even a moron can have his/her opinion. You can agree or disagree with that but you cannot deny him the right to hold that opinion. If you have an idea of who you want to see as the CM that again could be a case of a moron holding his / her views . The most important element of you wonderful commnet is the use of the pronoun WE ! Who is we, must be defined! Is it you and your tape worm? If WE refers to the people of Karnataka let us find out who the WE want as the CM after counting of the votes. Why should you decide whether he goes to Himalayas or to the CM's chair ? It is not your messsage that is offensive it is the impolite manner in which presented it!

So PKN anyone proffering an opinion contrary to yours is a moron?? And you equate this to democracy!! Why is that supporters of knickerwallahs always have to display this kinda of warped logic??
Any case, leave it to readers to draw their own conclusions
Sharrief is upset that his Grandson did not get a Congress ticket and he is reported to have said so. But, now all of a sudden that is not the issue and the issue is that the "Minorities" are not being taken care of by the Congress!!! These Politicians seem to still be under the opinion that the Public are foolish to believe every statement that they make. Now that he has been called to Delhi for talks, he will put some demands and get them accepted and then the situation of the "Minorities" will have suddenly improved. What balony!!!!!!!

Hebbar R, This is "minorityism" in action. While giving this press conference, I am sure Shariff would have worn, a muslim skull-cap in a strong colour. The problem is Congress is still thriving on "minorityism" to keep the "minorities" psychologically away from the main stream, while milking them as a "vote bank". With talk of "reservations" for minorities also, they are creating the same conditions that prevailed in India from about 1919 to 1947, when the country was partitioned. "Win the next election, do not worry about the medium term and long term consequences" - has been the Congress philosophy since the 1960s. The problem is other regional parties are emulating the Congress tactics, thus you see, Mullah Mulayam Singh, Mullah Ram vilas Paswan (who said only a muslim can be the CM of Bihar) are all playing the same "minorityism" and caste politcs as the Congress. You can see Congress is now bankrupt in new ideas. Their election strategy has been stolen. They have no new or original things to say or do.
Read politicsparty dot com. Every Congress seat is being sold. The sellers are listed on the site. Congress has sold its seats even to followers of Telgi. You cant get a more anti-national party than Congress. This also proves that the entire Telgi money was pocketed by the Congress.
God save Karnataka people if they do not use their brains and vote for Congress.
