Ahh.. they dint win

For once I was anxiously looking out for the election results in Chennai. In particular 8 constituencies where candiates from Loak Paritran were contesting. They did look quite resonable in their philosophy of transparency in the government and couple of other things, and recieved quite a bit of support from the educated community of Chennai, in particular the IT ppl. Grrhh... but they lost in all 8 constituencies and we got a 83 year old out there taking the oath.

Getting to that, I always find it funny the way the government changes in TN. It so very well reflects the inadeptness and inefficiency of every party. Over last couple of years there has alaways been AIDMK and DMK alternating in the rule. Possibly, since every time a party wins, their mismanagement and whacky governance, takes them down the next time. Common sense should really make people to come out of their mental block and think of alternatives. But, completely realize the difficulty and practical infeasibility of all that I blurted above.... but I believe I can make a wish... my birthday wish ....

TN politics are amazing man. This time Amma promised free computers and Karnunanidhi promised free color TV's. Guess people prefer color TV's more. Nobody's going to get anything, so next time its going to be Amma all over again, and the cycle will continue. Public memory is short. Its sad that Lok Paritran didn't win and some old geezer won instead. It shows people don't want to think for themselves. They are happy for someone else to think for them. Any idiot who shouts longer and louder will get a vote.

The lok taritram guys do not even mind giving a tamil name to their party.....

How can they win

Remember that even BJP is not Bee Jay Pee but Ba, Ja, Pa in tamil nadu

Its good the DMK won, cos now the party at the centre would align with the party at the state and the state might get some benefits....

I asked my uncle yesterday how can Mr. K work at the age of 84 ?

He replied, "Have you ever seen any chief minister work !!"
