The Curious Case of Indian Elections
It sounds strange that Rahul Gandhi who had claimed that he could have become India’s P.M. at the age of 25 refused to be appointed as a Cabinet Minister in the Manmohan Sign Government.
I have a couple of queries with regard to this revelation. Firstly, why did P.M. Singh have to unveil this ‘humble’ aspect of Rahul Gandhi’s personality so close to the General Elections? Secondly, Is Rahul Gandhi, who did not hold any political office till 2006 politically equipped to become a Cabinet Minister or even the P.M. Thirdly, though Rahul Gandhi was the star campaigner for the Congress during the 2007 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, the Party managed to secure merely 8.53 % of the votes. So does Rahul Gandhi really have the charisma that the Congress Party ascribes to him? Finally, after claiming that the 1971 breakup of Pakistan as one of the achievements of his family, why is Rahul Gandhi criticizing Varun Gandhi for his anti-Muslim comments?
Rahul Baba needs to get down to some serious thinking rather than making random comments to attract attention!

There is no dearth of sycophant’s when it comes to Gandhi family and Congress…so you will always have people and PM’s praising about Gandhi family.
I agree Rahul Gandhi lacks charisma among masses plus his oratorial skills against Modi’s and advani are highly unconvincing.
However we need to give the dude a break atleast the Guy is trying hard….one mistake (71 comment) as a novice is still better then veteran Advani’s (Jinnah)comment…
Dynamics of Hindi Hearthland politics have changed in last 2 decades…UP and Bihar is total caste politics and Congress and Baba must have realized (from fiasco in UP) that dynasty will not get them votes in these 2 states.
Congress base of Dalits have gone to Mayawati and Minorities are with Mulayam…Brahmins are with BJP thus they are a fourth string party in UP.
I think it is time baba and Congress realize that they have to project Congress as party of aam aadmi (irrespective of caste)
