Height of hypocrisy, when BJP buys MLAs it is becoz Congress/JDS is dead in Karnataka while in the centre if Congress does it, it is unethical, why not that the BJP led NDA is dead.
Moreover Congress had the highest vote share in the last elections when compared to BJP although BJP won more seats. Although, in terms of assembly seats, the BJP won 110 and Congress 80, when the same votes are considered for the Parliamentary constituencies on the recent election voting basis, the Congress is ahead of BJP with 14 parliamentary constituencies, BJP with 12 and JDS with 2 constituencies.
If the combined vote share of Congress and JDS is taken, then the BJP would end up with only 5 parliamentary seats.
Now, on what basis do u say that Congress / JDS is dead. Maybe u r drunk and then posted ur comment.

It seems people forget too soon. BJP (and supporter business kings) actually couldn't buy MPs because those MPs were seing the chance of power in either side. so concience came in and they were not ready to be sold for any price. Ridiculous BJP is now trying to take mileage out of that situation.

Shamla: Well said. Vajpayee govt lost by ONE vote, and gracefully accepted the result. Such is the personal integrity and honesty of Shri Vajpayee and his party. On the otherhand, Indira Gandhi declared Emergency in 1976 to stay in power, when she was disqualified by the Allahabad High court.
