Men Don’t Weep

Dilip D’Souza bawls like a baby because Narendra Modi won again. His entry is proof that he’s slowly losing his touch. But some of the old snake-in-the-grass writing style is still fresh.

Modi’s victory. Did I expect it? Of course. He has found the formula for how to win in his state; he knows it better than anyone else; he applies it better than anyone else. It’s exactly what Lallu Yadav did for years in Bihar: in that sense, these two are by far our shrewdest politicians.

Classic DDD: bracket Modi and Lalu together and comfort yourself. And hope others will fall into that trap.
