Re: APDM fail to reach concusses for boycott. PML(N) taking part in elections...
The only people shouting for 'principles' are the ones who already know that they are not going to win any seats (Immi, Qazi and other Tonga parties).
The politics of agitation have no value for Pakistan's awam. If instead of following Thief Justice in his personal anti-Musharraf campaign, the political parties had concentrated on making a united front, they could have gotten into a position where they could easiy win 2/3 of the seats, no matter how badly the elections were rigged. Once they had achieved 2/3 majority, they could restore constitution, even throw Musharraf out if they wanted to. And all these would have been achieved through peaceful democratic means and in the process awam and politicians would have learned how useful democracy can be when practices properly. Instead they decided to follow the Thief Justice and put the whole transition to democracy in jeopardy.
