As Mark Twain famously said " Loyalty to the country? Always. Loyalty or support to the Government? Only when they deserve it?"
In a democratic setup people have to make a change when a government becomes unpopular. However the sad thing is that many of these politicians cutting across parties collude with each other to loot public money and enrich themselves. There is now no mainstream political party free from corruption & dubious funding. People do want those who cannot offer credible political alternatives!
Where does this leave us-the common people of India, who wanted to throw out the corrupt UPA & Congress for their misrule & scams? How do we teach a lesson to people like Lalu, Mulayam & Mayawati or the DMK? Or how does one cut down a hypocritical Nitish Kumar to size when the JDU was with the BJP for 17 yrs before they suddenly discovered the virtues of Super Secularism? Or how does one react to anarchists and sanctimonious hypocrites like Arvind Kejriwal of the AAP?
And how did the common man react? By electing the best possible alternatives-the BJP at the Center and rewarding the good work of parties like the BJD, Anna DMK or even Mamata Banerjee's TMC.
Congress party is morally corrupt by birth. Fasting/roaming half-naked in streets are cheap tools/tricks invented/used by Congress leaders to insult (not defeat) British.
gandhis control all congress money, tons of it, most sitting abroad. sonia still has not accounted for her "medical trip to usa", and she won't face the media for it.

Before she could account her medical trip to USA, she will pass away as her unknown ailment (I.e., suspected of HIV/Cancer) will do the rounds.
