HE HAS FOOLED SONIA FOR 5 YEARS

Lalu's sole intention of joining the UPA and constantly flattering Sonia Gandhi was to ensure that the Fodder Scam and other scams that he and his wife are involved in remained under wraps. He has been eminently successful in fooling the Congress which were dependent on RJD MPs for survival in the last 5 years as the Fodder Scam probe has remained in limbo due to Sonia's instructions.
Lalu hopes that with his tying up for vote consolidation with Ram Vilas (whom Rabri, Lalu's wife has been calling "vote katta" or a splitter of votes) will give him better dividends in terms of more MPs in Parliament than a tie-up with a demoralized Congress which is virtually non-existent in Bihar. It also gives a more united opposition to the NDA by ensuring avoiding a split in the anti-NDA votes. This in turn could give both Lalu and Paswan better bargaining power in the next Lok Sabha which is likely to be more fractured than the previous one, whether it is with the UPA or the Third Front.
Lalu is also daydreaming on the chance to wangle a better ministry next time based on the RJD's numbers and the extent of the fractured mandate the next elections ultimately throws up.

(continued from above)....
Lalu the chalu (cunning) is aware that as the Congress and the BJP have become too fat and lazy to work at the grassroots levels in the States now after having tasting power at the Centre, it could be the turn of the State based regional parties who have been concentrating in their own States for their survival to perform better than the two large all India parties. With the fratricidal battles raging within the CPI(M) and the other Left parties in Kerala and West Bengal, where the bitter rivals from the opposition-the Trinamool and Congress have made an pre -election alliance, Lalu knows that the Left/CPI(M) will fare much worse than they had done in the past. This will further increase the bargaining power of local satraps like Lalu, Paswan, Mayavati, Mamata Banerjee, Mulayam Singh et all in the next Lok Sabha which also gives them a chance to forge the Third Front leaving the subject of who will be the Prime Minister in this mish-mash is still wide open.
