Count Down to the Floor Test

So,the Manmohan Singh government is finally poised to take on the no-confidence motion posted by the opposition....
I have no clue what shall come out of this...but, the revered Prime Minister of India has finally broken all the shackles and proven that he had more guts than all his predecessors put together....
No Prime Minister in the history of India has shown enough courage to be so resolute and determined to do what he/she believed in putting everything on stake...he has proven that some things are really worth dying for....no amount of eulogy is enough to praise him....he has single-handedly mobilised his party and its coalition partners to believe in his cause....it is his stalwart efforts which made Mrs.Sonia Gandhi go head-up and form a consortium with the most staunch of political opponents....
The opposition of the deal lacks all sense whatsoever...the Left can draw a leaf out of India's left neighbour geographically and try to find some sense in America's earnest attempts to befriend the fastest growing economies in the world....it is no hegemonic move....its a deal and a deal as India specific as it can ever get...
However,the Left can still claim for some impunity owing to the inertia of their thought-process,which is not ready to change even after the much hyped Singurs and Nandigrams...but, what is absolutely unpardonable is the stand of the BJP....has their senescent....no...senile politburo actually gone completely out of sense?Or have they no recollection whatsoever-may be the Uma Bharti syndrome- of the fact that they were once in power and it was in the Atal regime that an American President visited India-although more on a good-bye holiday than anything else-and that we were kowtowing the US when they senselessly attacked Afganistan and Iraq?The BJP high-command actually has been supporting the deal in hushed-up voices all through...initially it was Advani"ji" and later Atal"ji" who consented with Manmohan"ji", although never profoundly....but,all-in-all,LK Advani has miserably failed to match all the epithets given to him....he could've easily earned a place in history, had he been strong enough to not be driven by political benefits and think for the benefit of the country....he could've defined "The Opposition" in a whole new light for his posterity....he could've been remebered as one of the greatest leaders to have walked on Independent India....but no!He chose to be remembered as....no,he chose not to be remebered at all... he took a path much less arduous and as an old-fictitious-man put it-Harry Potter fans would know it by heart- "Took the easier path...because, what is right is always not easy!"
