Cedric, While I hold no particular brief for Sardinha, there's nothing wrong in being beaten by a rookie.
Did you mention how many times Sardinha was elected by Curtorim constituency voters? Either he must have done something good to have been elected time and again or the people of Curtorim must be bird-brains. Even the most successful politician is one day voted out. Every once in a while voters do need a new face and in Sardinha's case the 'while' was a very long while indeed. What was it, 20 years or more? Again your penchant for puzzles. You are saying the choice in South Goa is between the devil and the blue sea and then in the next breath you ask the voter to vote consciously. Pray how? Whoever is voted in South Goa, his or her voice will not be heard in the huge Indian Parliament. That is a given. No Goan will ever be prepared for the rough and tumble of Indian national politics. That is in fact not expected of the Goan member. Goans are supposed to be cultured, polished and educated and that is what House members expect of him and he is rewarded accordingly. See the path of Eduardo Faleiro and the ministerships he was accorded. A definite plus for power to the Goan member. Faleiro might not have got that by mere shouting. If that holds true, then Francisco Colaco would do Goa proud. "The fight or revolution to rescue Goa begins now" - and who will lead it? Babush Monserrate? Roland.
