It takes someone with the willpower of a Modi to herd the different factions together, and these congis are no Modi when it comes to leadership skills. As for Captain, yes he has a strong personality but he's got no pan-India appeal. He's just good for a patiala peg or two :)
and hello yourself, charmin' :)
Yes, that and the in-fighting but it needs to grow regional influential leaders. You don't need Pan-India leader right now, just try to safeguard the state politics .It's now about survival and if it keeps loosing state elections where Rahul acts as a detriment than nothing would be left.
@PP- Scindia is a smarter politician but he needs to wrestle MP or atleast do something there and Pilot is a poster-boy for tv interviews,had a bad reputation for being a slacker , though is trying to work around Rajasthan.
