-29+45#Guest2010-02-22 15:41

GOING DOWN IN THE DRAIN AGAIN.

-17+46#Guest2010-02-22 15:46

MR thought lesson no 1 To SF, now RW will teach him lesson 2 in politics and bring him down to earth both SF and his JVP buddies !!

-16+37#Guest2010-02-22 15:50

Balance Opposition : -Some of the UNPers will vote this time to this team because of SF.

-30+37#Guest2010-02-22 15:51

I feel sorry for Arjuna, for backing the wrong horse!

-17+34#Guest2010-02-22 15:55

JVP ,for the second time seems to have used SF to cover up depletion of their vote base.

Good move General we as Srilankan need some strong person to counter attack thuggery and family politics

-32+31#Guest2010-02-22 16:01

Majority of UNP will vote SF. This time, Ranil will be humilated and will be forced to leave the UNP leadership!

-10+19#Guest2010-02-22 19:44

not likely . Only if Jvp contests separately will the country know there real vote base tey will not then be able to hold governments to ransom

-14+25#Guest2010-02-22 16:10

Either UNF votes will split or SF will end up loosing his deposit!

-10+20#Guest2010-02-22 16:13

Arjuna will be bat on as a last man from Gampaha,,,

-15+25#Guest2010-02-22 16:16

His second blunder!

-19+23#Guest2010-02-22 16:23

Better you run from OKLAHOMA!

-21+28#Guest2010-02-22 16:38

It will be end of SF

-13+31#Guest2010-02-22 16:51

Good decision, it is better to trust the JVP than the cunning and selfish UNP. Good luck

-14+18#Guest2010-02-22 16:56

it is not a healthy alliance withoout UNP

-18+30#Guest2010-02-22 17:03

I think we need people like SF. Good Luck SF

-4+32#Guest2010-02-22 17:05

The same UNP that spoke good of SF will now start slinging mud at him. Wait and see. This is the nature of our politicians.

-22+22#Guest2010-02-22 17:05

May be SF is planning to contest for a slot in Bogambara or Weliakde Prison.

-18+23#Guest2010-02-22 20:20

Could you please explain why a slot in Bogambara or Weliokade? Do you support an corruption, nepotism and waste? General Fonseka devoted his life for the good of the country.

-7+19#Guest2010-02-22 17:11

Is Anoma running the show when SF's fate is yet to be decided?

-10+24#Guest2010-02-22 17:13

The country badly needs JVPers to have a control over the irregularities of any ruling party. A good move by the General to back them.

-18+22#Guest2010-02-22 17:22

JVP dosent have any options other than commit suicide.

-12+25#Guest2010-02-22 17:25

Well done SF, we need a person like you. May triple Gems protect you!

-13+16#Guest2010-02-22 17:28

WE are in the last lap of democracy .There won't be any election if this corrupted govt. come into power again.Get united and face the most ruthless administration in history of Sri lanka.

-5+18#Guest2010-02-22 18:08

-7+21#Guest2010-02-22 18:35

its a pity that the UNP members dont have the guts to stand up against their leadership for the sake of the country!!!

-6+15#Guest2010-02-22 19:13

Good news. We look forward to seeing you soon! God Bless you.

-15+20#Guest2010-02-22 20:15

Looses..... JVP will never get in to the parliament again.

-8+17#Guest2010-02-22 20:24

All my life our families voted UNP but this time it will be the JVP for the simple reason they are so stupid not to abandon Elephant. Even SLFP has abandoned their Hand

-13+21#Guest2010-02-22 20:24

MR IS RIGHT THIS MAN WANTS TO GAIN POWER HOOK OR BY CROOK HE WOULD FORM AN ALLIANCE WITH ANY PARTY BIG OR SMALL TO ACHIEVE THIS .

-22+21#Guest2010-02-22 20:30

I will definitely vote for what ever party SF leads.

-16+13#Guest2010-02-22 23:35

A vote for General Sarath Fonseka, is a vote for democracy, good governance and justice!

-4+7#Guest2010-02-23 00:00

Look like 'contesting against RW.'

-7+12#Guest2010-02-23 00:10

End of the opportunistic JVP blunders, after this election ...

-13+16#Guest2010-02-23 01:43

The heading should read "Fonseka to run for his life"!
