Looks like the political situation in karnataka is heading for a showdown.
1. BJP Wins 79 seats, JD(S) 65+ seats, Congress 58+ seats in the assembly election couple of years back
2. JD(S) and Congress tie up and form a collision government. With Dharam (yawn) singh as the chief minister, and siddaramaih as the deputy CM.
3.Siddaramaih quit the party along with some supporters, some months back
4. In zilla panchayat elections, siddaramaih faction does well. Congress decides to tie up with Sidd faction. This irks Go(w)da and he decides to walk out of coalition
5. Gowda’s son wants to break the coalition with congress, tie up with BJP and form a new government. But daddy gowda not interested in this.
All in all JD(S) is splitting up into smaller factions. This is great news for people in Karnataka. Hopefully JD(S) will be wiped out like whats happening to shivsena in maharashtra.
Wish such thing happens to DMK in TamilNadu pretty soon. No need to worry about AIADMK, as there is no one apart from Amma in the party
Update at 10.38 PM IST:
Dharam Singh says the government is stable, and there is no threat. Tee Hee
He didnt say which government. Did he?
Venkiah Naidu says, people didnt want fresh elections and so BJP tying up. Oh really?
I am very eager to check out Hindu’s editorial on this issue.

Tom, dick and harry stand in election. Tom wins but no majority. Dick and Harry tie up and win. Half the way, Harry quits. So now Dick and Tom tie up. Why dont they all tie up and just screw us one big time? WE are the dickheads anyway!

tamil nadus case is far better as they have voted for a majority ( whether they decide the right person or not is debatable ), but atleast in that quarter, they have clarity
