I got the distinct feeling that Sheela Bhatt's piece may have been written by a BJP press relations officer. "Desperate gamble for President?" Really???!!! The Congress may be anxious, but it has the upper hand, esp given Mayawati's legal travails. Bhatt is either uninformed, or unnecessarily painting the Congress president as "desperate" and scheming. In journalistic parlance, these headlines are termed "false excitement".

Congress purchased support from Mayawati in return of relief in "Taj Corridor" case. Is this upper hand of Congress or Madame Sonia?
In past, we have already witnessed Sonia expressing her deep disliking towards Mayawati, so how come Sonia has love & affection BSP supremo? If Sonia has upper hand, why does she runs to Mayawati's residence to beg support?
Mr Fernandes, the people like you have made Sonia & her Congress to rule, rather misrule this Country since Independence.

I get the distinct feeling that Michael Fernandes is a chronic BJP baiter being from a minority community. Such people only want everything thing without deserving it and this can be done by Congress only. But wait a minute, isn't Sonia Gandhi still a Christian like Mr. Michael Fernandes, so a natural hatred for BJP?
