A very good point. Only those successful enough to move their adress from up country to Bangkok can vote in Bangkok. And these same people are more likely to see through Thaksins shucking and jiving than those left up country in more controlled media and social conditions. The village head men don't have the same clout on those folks moved to the big city like they had on them at home.
Regardless of the party pushing going on and the parallel denigration of their opponents, the last 2.5 years have made clear :
One functions under stress, with a smile, and keeps on doing the job, is liked and respected internationally, and is a good spokesman for the nations interests on the international stage, can play hardball with opponents like police generals, and can hold a coalition together under the most trying of circumstances. Not to mention has a Finance Minister who pulled Thailands bacon out of the fire pit after Thaksins last puppet finance minister completely ignored the world financial crisis.
( Not meaningDevakula)
On the other side;
One goes off half cocked, gets bent and angry easily, makes increasingly bad decisions, can't keep his lies straight, contradicts himself regularly and is shown to be a regular and unapologetic liar on international tv, is known to make the whole of the country to be in a bad light, and is a blatant chaser of face at all costs to any one and anything in his way, and makes ongoing self serving decisions contrary to the well being of the Thai people..
