Getting it wrong always

While election parties in India are fighting hard to please the voters, common sense seems to have taken the back seat. While one party has changed the punchline from "..party ka haath gharion se saath" to "...party ka haath aam aadmi ke saath" the other is busy in making glow sign boards at the cost of government's money.

I don't think people are going to fall for these traps. The best thing that is about to happen is the inclusion of "None of the above" in the Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) that would put the power of choosing no one and expressing the feeling of trusting no party in the coming elections. I think the idea is a great one and should be implemented from this election onwards, but some parties have come strongly against this, we know why! after all this is democracy.
