CPM cannot hope to rule Kerala like West Bengal becos the Christian, Muslim and Nair lobbies have their own political groups to counter the Communist oligrachy with a sprinkling of Congress part thrown in.
More than Congress, it is the strength of the Christan dominated Kerala Congress and Muslim League that is stopping a repeat of West Bengal in Kerala. Nair strength is on the decline. Let Mamata build a similar coalition of anti-CPM castes and relgions and align them into a strong confederation; it will see the end of CPM rule like the collapse of nine pins.

dear sir, this is not possible in WB. caste politics is non-existent here. here it would never be like 'this caste will vote for that party' etc. it is individual choice here that matters. we sometimes don't even know which is the caste of the candidate we will vote for...

Spot on. That is the problem. She is now scared, if Buddha babu gets the success then she will be issue less in very short time. She should realise the importance of ideology. She should trust her own people.
