		<description>Looks like OL wants everything to go the way he feels and views!!! POLL is just a poll and i don&#039;t think anybody will take it seriously...For that matter, even earlier polls might be wrong!</description>

		<description>freewill,

You are right when you say that our villagers were influenced by their educated relatives. I&#039;m sure things would have been different if the candidate who was running for the post of pm was not SN. Although ex lyonpo SN went from village to village intereacting with the villagers at close quarters since the 90s (as if he knew Bhutan was to eventually become a constitutional monarchy) but there are also lots of stories he left behind in the villages which didn&#039;t do good for him. I&#039;m sure come 2013 things will be different. I would like to see young and capable people like OL run for the office in the next election-I&#039;m sure he&#039;ll make a great PM. It&#039;s time for the Oldies like JYT to go find a peaceful place and recite MANI their remaining life.</description>

		<description>By the way, I don&#039;t have a single once of a sympathy for the civil servants and the corporate employees that are whining right now. You reap what you sow. You guys are solely responsible for electing every dumb DPT MPs out there, you guys brain washed your illitrates ralatives, into thinking that DPT is good and PDP evil, you guys fooled your poors farmer relatives by persuading them to vote DPT.
I feel like you civil servants and corporate employees who brain washed your illitrate relatives form poors villages should be put into jail.
Let this be a lesson to you people, next time, look before you leap, because all that glitters is not gold.</description>
