It turns out that the tight contest was a figment of imagination of the Colombo elite or a well thought out disinformation campaign.

It also points out that Western concepts of opinion polling and telephone surveys and running lection campaigns based on such are really are not suitable in a country like SL where the majority do not take part in such exercises and/or will not provide truthful answers to strangers who do polling.

They cowardly leaders of the bankrupt and nearly bankrupt political parties, well supported by by the foreign interests,who were hell bent on destroying the Rajapaksas , put up this ignorant,rude vengeful and greedy soul to destroy a man who fought against all odds to liberate the country from thirty years of mayhem,whilst still maintaining good economic growth.

Had this plot succeeded Srilanka would have gone back to the dark ages.

Thanks to the poor, but smarter masses who realized the bogus and cunning nature of the propaganda dished out to them in bucket loads,the country has been spared the disaster which the opposition would have delivered had they succeeded.

This is a new dawn in the history of Srilanka. I am confident that the President will bring home the bacon to all poor , battlers irrespective of whether they are Tamil, Sinhala,Burghur ,Muslin or any other.now that they have rewarded him with this magnificent victory.

Murali who loves the country a lot will not be able to stop himself from entering politics, to do something for it, hence we might at last get the first decent major politician, that most are pining for.

Fonseka and family are at a hotel getting ready for the airpor, but army has surrounded it.

I believe he is now cornered in a Colombo hotel with his arms dealer son in law and ,the two daughters waiting to escape. The Army is surrounding the hotel in case he will cause any mischief using his ex Army thugs and the JVP, UNP hoons.

What a sorry plight for this self appointed War Hero and the best Army Commander in the world.
