emotional and religions CM! where is the astute politician?
Recently in a wedding (at the house of T.R.Baalu) the CM made a statement praising his children and also complimenting himself for having such children! increasingly he seems to be more open and blatant about talking about his family and their role in the party and politics apart from governance itself. Stalin has been CM in waiting long enough, Alagiri has been holding his own down south, Kanimozhi has started to make her presence felt in the last couple of years.
now looks like the gen-next is seeking power and attention, i read with interest that the daughter of Alagiri was given a prime place in the DMK women's wing conference recently and Stalin's son has produced a blockbuster movie in recent times.
i don't know whether the CM meant having such children (or so many children) was a virtue, but, he is increasingly getting to me more and more emotional in public. yet again in a meeting of bishops this time, he spoke of 'being accepted by god' as against whether he accepts or rejects god. this follows his similar pronouncements earlier on the subject in the past few months.
the nehru family has dominated the congress in the centre for three generations and looks like set for the fourth. DMK that stemmed from a political movement directly opposed to the congress culture half a century later seems no different, steeped as it is in similar feudal culture. interestingly the tamil magazine Kalki has done the 'fall of DMK' as its cover story in their recent issue!
interestingly in the above referred to wedding speech he also made out the sethusamudram to be some kind of a one point life mission of Baalu!
