Arvind Kejriwal and AAP

The AAP could be a good alternative but too early to say anything. They need to first prove their credentials with their performance in Delhi. People have pinned too much hopes on them and are expecting too much too soon. There has been an overwhelming response from new aspirants to the party. The AAP needs to be very careful in screening and selecting of their candidates. Members like Kumar Vishwas would do well to speak less and work more. I d like the party to have a successful tenure in the capital.

win or lose if the other national parties clean up their act due to the Kejri factor, the AAP's jhadoo would have achieved its objective of cleaning the current political cesspool to some extent 😆

all rubbish that aap is taking the nation.

you have to be a real fool to support these bloody socialists! this survey is crap as well. even indira gandhi couldnt get 45% vote share, where is 70% of the nation supporting them?

already aap's popularity has been reduced by half after joining hands with the congress. congress leaders are infact saying they can tie up with aap for general elections.

they wont get more than 3 seats, and will help bjp win.

aap steals congress votes rather than the bjp's bjp's vote share went down by 3, and congress by 15% and as per LS consituencies bjp would have won 5 out of 7 seats on assembly issues. but for ls bjp would have won all 7 elhi seats in general elections.

aap might grow and become a national party by 2013. but now that aap will help divide socialist pseudo secular votes of the congress, bjp is winning 230 seats this year.

Very true. The AAP should take their time instead of giving in to the mounting public pressure. I don't see the AAP win a majority in the coming elections but then it did not stop them from forming the govt in Delhi. I got the feeling that it was almost thrust on them. They would have been more comfortable in the opposition. all the same its good to see them rise to the challenge. The BJP has cause to worry. The number game is set to be upset.

On AAP, I support them as of now, but their welfare schemes look like they would fizzle out in the long run. As I'd said before as well, they should cut down on the anti-corruption unilateral agenda and not engage in foolish populism anywhere. The free water scheme (20ML per month) is a diaster for large slum families who'd have to pay for all the water.

Yes, they need to be careful about their populist moves, though its understandable under present circumstances. They were under a scanner for their pre election promises and with the little time they had before proving their strength in the floor of the house it was a necessity.

Genie: Hey, I like Kumar Vishwas. The guy can talk like a whiplash. 😆

Would he really take up his dare of contesting from Amethi! 😆
