Your statement about letting the 'poor masses' choose betrays a lack of understanding of realpolitik. It is indeed a fact, which I've witnessed, that the 'poor masses' are easily bribed by liquor and small change. This amounts to wantonly electing thugs.
Moreover, the urban middle classes are no better than the 'poor masses'. There's no reason to believe the urban middle class will vote clean candidates to power. Perhaps you forget that the uppermost factor on every Indian's mind is the caste demon. Times Now sampled urban and rural voters, and they all said they'd vote for 'jati' 'gotra' etc and not with their brains (party symbols be darned, caste is first). Of course, the 'poor masses' are lured to the polling booths by their fellow 'caste member' with spirits and cheap gifts. All parties are guilty of propagating casteism.
Even Narendra Modi is now playing the 'OBC' card, given that his bluff of 'Golden Gujarat' has been exposed largely as a hoax.
[h=2]DMK has fielded crorepatis and may finish third, says Alagiri[/h]
Pitching to contest the highest number of Lok Sabha seats ever, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam on Monday re-nominated two of its controversial former Union Ministers, A. Raja and Dayanidhi Maran, for the coming election, while dropping its Madurai strongman and former Union Minister, M.K. Alagiri.
Despite the “image dent” faced by Mr. Raja in the “2G spectrum scam” and Mr. Maran in the “Aircel-Maxis deal,” the DMK has boldly fielded them again. They will re-contest the Nilgiris (Reserved) and Central Chennai seats, respectively.
The list sparked controversial remarks by Mr. Alagiri. “Going by the announced names, the DMK may be pushed to the third spot,” he told The Hindu. “The party has given ticket to those who are crorepatis. Those who have real contacts with the cadres in their respective constituencies have been ignored.”
Asked if he had plans to start a new party, he replied: “I have no plans to start a new party and if at all there is any such move, it would be made only after consulting my supporters.” As long as his grievances were not redressed, he had no intention of going back to the party.

Dine with Kejriwal for ₹20,000
A ₹20,000 dinner ticket awaits those who want to dine with Aam Admi Party chief Aravind Kejriwal this weekend in Bangalore.
Brain child of former Infosys CFO V Balakrishnan, who has won a nomination to contest from AAP ticket from Bangalore North, the donations from this event will be used to raise funds for the party’s election campaign.
A spokesperson for AAP told Business Line that AAP was not involved with this particular fund raising activity but a group of people led by Balakrishnan are behind this event. He also said the ticket price for dinner has not been finalised yet.
The spokesperson said that the dinner event is open to anyone who wants to help AAP’s cause through monetary donations.
The dinner event will be held on Saturday evening though the venue has been kept a secret. It is perhaps for the first time that such an event is being held and is similar to such events organised in the US for politicians who are contesting elections.
Kejriwal is also expected to hold another event on Sunday as well though it will not be used for fund raising activity.
Meanwhile, the decision to nominate Balakrishnan for the Bangalore Central constituency has come as a surprise. He was expected to be nominated for the Bangalore South constituency against his former Infosys colleague Nandan Nilekani but the party seems to have saved both of them from some embarrassment.
AAP has chosen a relatively unknown Neena P Nayak, a child rights’ activist, to take on Nilekani and the sitting MP HN Anantha Kumar of the BJP. Balakrishnan had earlier said that he would lend support to Nilekani during his election campaign. Whether he would actually do so now remains to be seen.
The AAP spokesperson said Balakrishnan had to be persuaded to contest the elections and once he agreed to do so, he was asked to appear for a formal interview where he had to spell out his agenda for the elections.
“We decided to nominate him because he is a good man and wants to usher in a corruption-free era in politics,” the spokesperson said.

narayanamurthy should be having a good laugh. all the drop outs from infosys are making waves in the indian elections 2014. bala will teach AAP how to raise money for elections and perhaps help in cooking up the accounts for election commission and audit. he must have been well trained by murthy in these things.nilekani has already generated 60 crore aadhar cards for mass use.in course of time all the oldies running out of infosys in record speed will help build india where no one would like to stay. lol
excellent synergyAmar Singh, the Dalal of politics and who hit the head lines for the Cash for Vote scandal, Ajith Singh's RLD
RLD party without suitable candidates
Amar singh and Jayaprada-candidates without party
thakur and jat with telugu thrown in great heady cocktail.hamara bharat mahaan.
timesnow arnab interviewed mamatha .she comes off as a sincere person but highly emotional and opinionated. perhaps is a poor administrater too.in combination with J and mayawathi could decide indias' fate
Infighting for loksabha seats in UP among BJP stalwarts may alter the chances of BJP.wrangle for varanasi,lucknow,kanpur seats and infighting among senior leaders may hurt BJP. For BJP the enemy is within.it is considered modis' election. stalwarts are taking it easy and not doing much.there is a price to be paid for that.
What gujarat did to kejriwal.
His 3 month old lingering cough stopped as soon as he entered gujrat. He did not cough even once and had to cancel his planned hospital visit. Gujarat's health.
2. He wanted to stay longer by getting arrested, but was not even detained. Gujarat's hospitality.
3. He went in a maruti wagon R but returned on a private jet. That is growth.

Will the public of Tamil Nadu accept AAP as an alternative…..?
It is to be seen how far AAP make its presence in Tamil Nadu politics as it has to pass through the bottle necks like strong affiliation of public towards caste,
money power, brain washing strategy adapted by hardcore politicians and tall promises.
Of course public have already forgotten ‘ 2 G’,etc.

காலில் விழுந்து, கெஞ்சி பிரசாரம்: ஓட்டு போட பணம் வாங்காதீங்க! - தினமலர்
'பணம் பெற்று, ஓட்டு போடாதீங்க!' என்ற கோஷத்தை முன்னிறுத்தி, வாக்காளர் காலில் விழுந்து, விழிப்புணர்வு பிரசாரம் செய்து, பரபரப்பை ஏற்படுத்தினர், 'சத்யாகிரஹா' அமைப்பினர்.
இதே அமைப்பினர், கடந்த, பல தேர்தல்களில், இத்தகைய விழிப்புணர்வு பிரசாரத்தை தொடர்ந்து மேற்கொண்டு வருகின்றனர்.
இப்போது, லோக்சபா தேர்தலுக்காக, மீண்டும், வாக்காளர்கள் காலில் விழும், விழிப்புணர்வு பிரசாரத்தை, சென்னையில் நேற்று துவக்கினர்.
இதை, தமிழக, இணை தலைமைத் தேர்தல் அதிகாரி, சிவஞானம் துவக்கினார்.

Dance of democracy!
why do you think so. if brahmins getting together in tamilnadu and jointly fighting for their rights has been often advocated in this forum in all seriousness. it has not been considered a joke
but brahmin individually voting for AAP is a joke. why? this is much easier
in delhi also It was a joke in early stages. many thought it was no better than NOTA. but disgust with congress was so much that they voted for it. the middle class voted only in late afternoon on day of polling after seeing the trend. voting had to be extended to accomodate them.
