And the winner is....

The results are out... and it's a big relief that it's no cliff hanger... disappointing the media sharks who were waiting eagerly for one more episode of "kissa kursi ka" enacted with enhanced dollops of shamelessness.. No more endless waiting in front of the gate of Amma's and Maya's of the world, and no more need for backroom diplomacy. They have to shift their focus back to more dramatic IPL jumboree.. At least some or my fellow citizens have voted with some sense, and regards to their brain. We have to leave it to time to prove if Madam's team really deserve another chance, that was delivered to them in a platter. But one thing is sure, if they had right kind of intentions, it's their chance to deliver. There is no one to blame on, not even the communists... In fact they got a real golden chance to have a clean, young and new look cabinet - with many of the so called lame ducks have bitten dust. If one have an initial look at the results, there is a very evident linkage between the performance of the respective state governments with the results. If the local state government has been performing well, they were rewarded with a good mandate... But still we are far off from eliminating our dependancy on issues like cast equations, money power etc. before casting our votes..
