"Rajnath to CMs: Emulate Modi"- THE TIMES OF INDIA
--------
Party president Rajnath Singh praised Modi for changing the perception that BJP could not buck the incumbency disadvantage in a state.
There is nothing called "incumbency disadvantage". Just be efficient. And don't be corrupt. You'll keep getting the votes. Even if you are a newer version of Adolph Hitler.
This is being seen as the CM's triumph in forcing rival party factions to accord him a higher ranking in the party estimate.
It is an animal's world. Survival of the fittest.
Urging state units to begin preparations in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan which go to the polls in November, Singh used the Gujarat performance to egg on the leaders to beat incumbency in these party-ruled states.
Yeah, beat the stuffing out of the minorities and get the votes from the communal minded.
"We have shattered the myth in Gujarat that a BJP government cannot return to power twice or thrice. MP, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan should also try to repeat this kind of success," Singh said.
Communal riots, I presume?
The fulsome praise from the party chief, which was reflected in spokesman Ravi Shankar Prasad's remark to reporters that "Modi has done extraordinary job", took insiders by surprise.
What is so surprising? Everybody loves a winner. Even if you hate the guy's guts, pretend to love him. See the warm Rajnath-Modi embrace!
