Someone has to stop the bullying. Sit back and enjoy the show. This is not Jagan PPP. This PPP has muscle and firepower.
You knuckleheads keep saying this...and its based on a wishful thinking....and you guys know this very well.
When people ask the question to others like DrugB, Baseman, Dave, KP et al the discussion descend to the gutter
So let me ask you this question:
What "power" does Jagdeo and the PPP have to force the hands of the PPP?
So far, Opposition calls have been virtually ignored by the coalition...it will continue to be so until and after March 21, and after April 30. It is doubtful that the coalition will announce a date before election before that time UNLESS THE ABC force their hand.
The ONLY reason why the coalition is doing so, I will argue, is to give itself enough time to prepare to rig the election. There is too much at stake for them to simply hand over power to a person they hate with a vengeance.
The PPP is not known for putting pressure on the PNC....its always the other way around.
Jagan was unable to do so, and now Jagdeo does not have many cards to play....Jagdeo is the PPP and the PPP is Jagdeo. The PPP does not possess the status and caliber of a respected organization and it is unlikely that it can motivate people to start a revolution from the bottom (despite their supposedly Marxist revolutionary credentials). In other words, the PPP, Jagdeo, Irfaan and others are now victims of their own creation.
On the other hand, the coalition enjoys a more cordial relationship with the external countries that matter, and being in power, they control the means to rig the election and maintain power.
Jagdeo is living in la la land if he believe he can muster Afro support to join hands with Indos, sing cumbayah and then move to create instability and put pressure on the coalition.
Thus my question above....where is Jagdeo's actual and hidden power coming from?
