Aakar Patel : The difference between a widow and a widower
The second reason Sonia Gandhi chose him was a moral one. And it was to make up for the Congress's presiding over the massacre of Sikhs in 1984. The Congress again won Sikh-majority Punjab this time, showing that the community has put the matter behind them.
Though her chamchas overdo it, it is true that Sonia Gandhi has run the Congress party well.
She has put the party and the nation above herself and her family. She chose not to be prime minister in 2004. Her son, though he won then, was not made a minister as first-time MP. This time, she was adamant that Manmohan Singh would lead the government and made sure everyone else in the Congress said that as well.
The conduct of her son and daughter in the election, their modesty and their culture, has been manifestly different from that of Varun Gandhi.
It has taken an Italian to show Indians how to run a political party.
