Re: YouGov-Cambridge Poll: 66% for PTI, 9% PML N, 3% PPP
Come on guys. Why you are giving such importance to PPP's statements that they could have separated Sindh from Pakistan at the time of BB's death?
As far as the separate survival of Sindh is concerned, history confirms this. But the ground reality of our time is Neither Pakistan nor Sindh can survive without each other. Sindh kisi ki jageer nahin.
If by calling Sindhis Jaahil and uneducated, kisi ke dil main thandak padti hai to let it be. This attitude will only result increase in support of PPP and revival of Sindh card. Calling someone jaahil is very easy task, but knowing what are the problems of people and working on solutions is very complicated tasks which is beyond those who rely on these types of polls.

PPP vote base is uneducated jahils who speak of the glory of ZAB some 40 years ago. However they would never vote for Zardari again after the mockery he has made out of Benazir's Death. Its close to 4 years and still no killers named.
Irony is they will still vote for PPP due to their blind love for Bhutto. Watch when His Highness Crown Prince Bilawal Bhutto takes the throne.

Clearly, this reflects a growing disenchantment with the ossified two-party system that has acquired a stranglehold over Pakistan. Bereft of ideas, ideals and passion, both the PPP and the PML-N are completely out of touch with the aspirations of the young. **And it is the young who make up a significant chunk of the electorate: according to one estimate, there are 38 million Pakistanis between 18 and 30 years of age. **It is this key demographic Khan appeals to the most. My old friend Aitzaz Ahsan had a useful take on this phenomenon. According to him, PPP supporters tended to be 55 plus; Nawaz Sharif attracted the 35-55 age group; and Imran Khan was likely to get the bulk of the youth vote.
