Next govt.

I think the rank-of-file Congress leaders and workers will soon start wondering about the mess that Manmohan Singh has landed them in -- by trading the Left (who makes no demands for ministerial gaddis etc.) for the likes of SP and JMM who will now push the Congress out of its own turf. And that too for an obscure nuclear deal with no immediate benefits but giving others the pretext of painting the Congress as anti-Muslim. Once the dust settles and the Congress tally go down in the next elections, there is a real possibility of a revolt led by the likes of Pranab and Arjun (who are the acceptable faces of Congress to the Left).
