"Thackeray's remarks that only the Sena pattern -- and not Modi -- will work in Maharashtra"
But Sena pattern didn't work in Maharashtra in 2000 & 2005 elections !! Congress NCP is in power for 8 years !! Even Shivsenas big leaders Rane and Raj Thaku split the party. What did Bal do at that time !!
Look at Modi, he became CM for the record 3rd time in a row. He single handedly triumphed the party twice in succession !!
Thackeray is jealous of Modi's achivement. He is scared that BJP will grow in Maharashtra if Modi campaigns.

sena pattern like the left is only taking ill of outsiders (the section of outsiders they talk against keeps changing). It does nothing for Marathi manoos let alone other people in Maharashtra. Some talk of reservations will never help the Manoos in the long run but they keep talking about it. Moreover they support unions of traffic violators who have a tiger and Jai Maharashtra pasted on rear glass. I really dont understand their pattern but it is very negative and obviously doesnt work.

Bal is useless. He can't keep Shiv sena from splitting. He can't make Shivsena win in Assembly elections. He is jealous of Modi. He knows that in next elections, if Modi campaings, BJP will get more seats than Sena, and BJP will demand CM post. So, Uddhav can never become CM. Due to his envy, he is trying to prevent BJP from getting CM post.

you dont understand because you are outsider. Don't you ever wonder why there are millions of followers of Bal Thackeray across the state? Try to understand that before commenting....

What's there to explain in that there are millions of idiots such as yourself in Maharashtra who vote for SS? Do you know the Marathi population in MP, Chattisgarh and UP? There are more Marathis there than Hindi siders in Maharashtra. So try to behave like an India otherwise you can have your own nation of Maharashtra full of people who only know how to be clerks (karkoons) with no management or business skills. You people will starve to death of the Gujjus and Marwadis don's start businesses to feed your families.
