first of all the cong party shouldn't have aligned with the jd(s) after the '04 polls. it should have honoured the mandate and sat in the opposition. all that talk of keeping the communal parties away by the jd(s) would be put to test at that very time. the situation we are witnessing today would have happened then itself. recovery of the cong(i) seems tough from here. people want change. they are curious to know how "communal" the so called political parties. if the bjp tastes power for once, then regaining lost ground will be tough for the cong(i). the last parliamentary elections say the cong(i) led coalition surprise the nation. but since then the party is on a steady down-hill ride with its name surfacing in the many scams. BJP + JD(S)= TOUGH TIME FOR "SECULAR" CONG.happy viewing "kyunki jd(s) bhi kabhi secular thi!!!"
