Looks like you have not seen Bajpayee's speech in recent times. He takes 10 minutes pause before completing a sentence.
Once a British Parliament delegation came to meet him. There was a blind British MP in the delegation. He asked a question to Bajpayee. Bajpayee took so much time to answer that the MP asked his colleague if Prime Minister Bajpayee had left the room!
And I am not talking about Man Mohan Singh's speeches. Never had any doubt the intellectual content about his work.
Sonia has been wonderful. Far better than usual politicians. Both on National and International fora. She is spontaneous, witty, sharp and politically correct. Surprisingly she represents India and Indian values better than many of our local politician. Surprising. But true.
