Dap's little Napoleon

Winning the 2008 election in Penang for the Pakatan parties was really the easy part. But after nearly three years of their administration,Lim guan Eng now realiases that holding on to the price capture is replete with alot of unexpected difficulties. With the coming of the 13th General election coming soon, many incumbents are wary of their position. Some lucky assembly person elected during the last election are now worried they may no longer be Yang berhormats in the coming election. This fear has precipitated with alot of anxious incumbents finding ways to please their masters in order to be selected for the next election.
Deputy Chief minister Ramasamy's mistake was to prematurely name three indian candidates for the coming election. Why he did that perhaps is best only known to him. He however has denied making such a call and quite rightly was reprimanded by the haughty karpal Singh. But what strikes most ordinary Dap supporters is why make such a big deal when the Big election was just round the corner and such public display of mudslinging would not serve any one's purpose, especially Dap's. Naturally , UMNO's mainstream media T.V 3 when to town and reported every bit of mudslinging thrown by Sri Delima, assemblyman, RSN.Rayer.

Why did Rayer and Bagai Dalam assemblyman,A Thanasekharan joined in the fray when the matter could have been easily resolved by a gentle reprimand from  Karpal to Ramasamy? Now, it seems hell has broken lose and everyone has joined the bandwagon to say their piece. And all over a small matter that could have been quietly resolved. Dap and its members must realise that they are been watched carefully by the electorates to see whether they are worthy successors of the old B.N govt. If they fail to live up to expectations most likely they will return to their role as the opposition members.
