BJP is a lousy party compared to Congress as far as quality of people and leadership is concerned. The issue here we are discussing is Modi - who seems to have become bigger than the BJP party itself. The Gujarati people are known to be peaceloving people and there needs to be a study done as to why they support Modi. I think as peace loving people - they are scared of aggressiveness of many muslims ( sometimes real fear , sometimes a bogey ( no pun intended )) and hence have trusted their security to Modi so they can live in peace. Issues like Shah Bano , Salman Rushdie, Barbari Masjid , terrorism and riots , and now Danish Cartoon , support for Saddam and violence against Taslima have scared Gujaratis to do what they are doing.
