It seems that Shiela Bhatt expects too much from Sonia Gandhi for which she is not capable to deliver at all. Understanding political scenerio and taking appropriate steps to extract positive results needs a good understanding of politics and Indian traditions. Sonia simply lacks these all qualities. In fact she has not shown any leadership quality whatsoever since beginning till date. She is congress president simply because all other leaders have no guts and no support in mass. At least Sonia can get some support from old congress families in the name of Nehru and Gandhi (due to name similarity).

See any communist, you will find similar shameless person if not more. This is what all Indian comrades are.
Sikhs getting slaughered in thousands = A MISTAKE. Hindus getting killed in Kashmir = Political problem. Muslims getting killed by a few hundred = Holocaust. Poor protestors getting shot in WB under Left Govt = Misunderstanding.
Banning Parzania in Gujarat = Communal. Banning Da Vinci Code and Jo Bole So Nihaal = Secular.
Kargil Attack = Government failure. Chinese invasion in 1962 = Unfortunate betrayal.
Reservations in every school and college on caste lines = Secular. Reservations in Minority institutions = Communal.
Fake encounters in Gujarat [Sohrabuddin] = BJP Communalism. Fake encounters under Cong-NCP in Maharashtra [Khwaja Younus] = Police atrocity.

Talking about Hindus and Hinduism appeasment = Communal. Talking about Muslims and Islam = Secular.
BJP freeing 3 terrorists to save 100 Indian hostages = Shameful Congress freeing 4 militants to save just a life of one daughter of its minister in Kashmir [Rubina Sayed] = Natural Political dilemma.
Attack on Parliament = BJP ineptitude. Not hanging Afzal Guru the mastermind despite Supreme Court orders = Humanity and Political dilemma.
BJP questioning Islam = Communal. Congress questioning Lord Rama existance = Clerical Error.
Is there any end to Congress and it shameless supporters hypocrisy.

Mr Sahadevan, BJP defeated the only one CPM MLA in Karnataka. So, CPM=0 in Karnataka. You should migrate to Waste Bengal and try to save CPM there.

OK
finally, after a long time someone who actually told the story the way it is!
2004 was a fluke for Sonia Gandhi and the congress. they just got 7 more seats than BJP and everyone started talking about how India voted for Sonia, she is still the same mumbling lady who was forced into politics.
even now, if Congress comes back to power at the Centre, it will be because BJP cant figure out who their leader is(please not geriatric Advani!), ironically the same reason they won in Gujarat and K'taka.

Wouldn't it have been nicer if the title of the story was also put appropriately?
"Sonia can no longer lead Congress"... "Congress dying under Sonia".. "Congress days are now numbered"... etc. etc.??
But then, everyone knows that, and no one would have bothered to read the story... .Hence the author chose a title which brought on many like myself to read the story. However, even after reading it completely, I didn't find any mention of BJP's credible win apart from a passing mention of Arun Jaitley..
None of these jokers are willing to write, though they know very well, that Reservation, farmer's largesse, Islamic pandering, security, selection of Prez, insult of MMS, idiot Shivraj Patil's handling of our security, inflation are some of the issues affecting the aam-aadmi and they notice this, even if they don't say so in TV channels.
And, when they get the opportunity, they slap whoever fails them, be it BJP or Congress.
The aam-aadmi is not a ch**tia that our politicians think he is!!!
