This whole funda of nuke deal is a facade as govt has lost credibility ( which it never had as it was a set of people against a party) which they brought showing Dr. Singh as PM. They had to detach left or left had to detach from the Govt as the entire country is going thru economic crisis. Congress chose to take this deal forward not because of any national interest which they never had since Gandhiji times but just to divert attention and all it will do is gain as they are pretty sure of loosing elections due to anti incumbancy. They dont see a scope of recovery in the economic crisis.which shows that WE ARE IN FOR TOUGHER ITMES ahead. Congress can only gain as the anti leftist crowd might be swayed to think that cong is taking a corrective stand against the left.Also the traditional BJP crowd who are expected to be Pro American since iraq/ laden would be swayed to their way.
Any such calculations may be flawed as the Voters in India are deeply fragmented and also now a days more and more elections are won more on economic issues than these mere political posturing which congress and the left are punters of.
