    Congress supporters
    Congress supporters dance in frenzy as the party emerged victorious for the third time in Delhi.

    The Congress has broken its losing streak in state elections. But it would be dangerous to see the results of these Assembly elections as anything more than the results of these Assembly elections.

    The BJP had won handsome victories in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan in 2003. But it could not take these gains to other states in the Lok Sabha elections of 2004 a few months later — this is where the choice and winnability of allies matter.

    For the Congress, it would also be wrong to read into these results a reprieve on either internal security or inflation and growth.

    The 3-2 tally only earns the UPA some breathing space and room for manoeuvre before the campaign begins for Lok Sabha polls 2009.

    BJP: learn from mistakesBy: manoj | 09-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward BJP lost because it relied heavily on negative sentiments again Congress.It hoped Congress party's messed-up governance in centre would yield votes in states. But state elections are more about local issues then national issues. Also although congress had many shortcoming but as a voter it is important to know what strategy BJP would employ remove these shortcomings.BJP highlighted congress failures but could not portray clearly how they would face such problems. Also choosing candidates who could connect to voters pulse is more important than having star campaigner. Modi is a hero in Gujrat but why would a delhites would fall for his oratory since he wont be working for them. But I hope BJP would learn from its mistake in coming general election because I have lost all hope of a secured and developed India under congress government.

    Advani's Desperation By: Annadurai | 09-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward BJP adopts a two faced approach.Before election it puts a Hindutva mask, terrorise minorities, whips up the religeous fundamentalism and gets itself elected.Once elected, it puts another Mask called "Development" because it knows the Hindutva mask will not help furthr thanks to large number of sensible people still in the country.Basically, it neither has commitment to Hindutva nor Development.It is like any other party having its own personal aspirations of many politicians covered by one ubrella .Advani's desperation to become PM at any cost even at the cost of Destruction will not yeild any result
