PML winning though, may end up creating enough polarization that ends up fragmenting this country for good.
Im no Fan of IK, but we need a generally neutral face rather than racially identifiable people.
Correct. Nawaz Sharif barely ran a campaign in Sindh in the 2008 elections. He is known to count on votes from central/northern Punjab alone to get to power in the center. Very dangerous for Pakistan even in times like today where ethnic/religious politics is not as powerful as it was till the 90's.
For all its fault, the PPP remains the only force with enough presence in all regions (including even Gilgit-Baltistan, FATA, Islamabad) to be called a national political party. PPP doesn't need to shed its 'Bhutto' charisma. But does need to shed the dynastic politics. I am hoping that PTI will be a truly national level party. Well... only a few months remain to see if that is true or not. PMLN really needs to make inroads in Sindh. Real vote bank--and not coopting the Pagaras or Sindhi nationalists. Without a party which glues Punjab and Sindh Pakistan is doomed.
