General Elections !!! Sudden Impact!!

I have been following the news for sometime and hearing about the elections... But i couldnt care to find out when it was... but all this news about IPL being postponed and taken to another country because of elections made me find out when exactly election was... Man i dint know they are coming so soon....

I used to, i remember, when i was in school, sit with my dad and watch NDTV with interest trying to find out who won during election results time ... listening to all the cr@p the politicians and leaders were eschewing... i used to find it interesting and believable when they were trying to make losses sound like wins, saying their party will win even though they were 100 seats behind their rivals as if some miracle is about to happen... it never did and i often was saddened if it was the party which my folks were supporting...

During that time how i wished i would turn 18 faster so that i can vote.. i eventually did turn 18 but had to wait for 3 years to get a chance to vote.. when i did, i went and voted for a IIT guy who was starting a new party with some vision thinking i am contributing to the society.. but that guy lost badly which was expected... what was worse was that party broke because of infighting... and that ended my belief in the electoral system of India....

Since then I have become a Cynic watching with amusement the things which goes on in Indian politics... Sometimes get enraged and then think what better can i expect... India Shining or Aam Aadmi campaign.. well neither.. coz its only Politician getting Richer which is the campaign which always win...

So which party do i Support.. well i dont have to say coz it sure doesnt matter... which party would win, Congress or BJP or Communists?? None!!! which coalition win, NDA, UPA or "Third Front"... well no one can say... well there is a good chance that eventually the coalition running the government is something new, found by a set of opportunistic parties and its called "NUPA Front"!!!

But i can say for sure who will lose... Indian public.... When i see Obama i see a guy who has a vision and a plan to do something with his country... he may be right or wrong.. he maybe someone who is going to be corrupt and make millions or billions.. but still he has a policy and he will follow that... i try to find an Obama amongst Indian politicians ( and i am not big fan of Obama) and i cant believe i can find one.. so that pretty much Sums up our future... India is growing despite the politicians.. If only it did with the aid of politicians, we might be somewhere else..

Still i feel bad i am not able to Vote in this general election... Don't know why!!
