wouldnt it be wonderful if the indian electorate did the same thing: dump both the congress and the marxists?

yes, it's unlikely that the left will lose bengal completely but they can be hurt and chastened if this election shows they are not so omnipotent or universally beloved.
in kerala, alas, it's tweedledum and tweedledee: whether it's the left or the congress, it's the same faces -- some christist will be the revenue minister so that he can handily give away public land to encroaching christists; some mohammedan will be education minister so that he can destroy the schools and colleges that hindus can go to and help the christist and mohammedan institutions which have state-funded salaries, but huge bribes that go to the management to hire teachers or admit students.

Have you noticed that there is very little election analysis from Bengal if any on popular news channels? Both the Bihar elections were covered almost 15 hours/day just after the elections were announced. Kahiye netaji of star news went everywhere in other states. On Bengal, everyone is silent.
Do we at all have democracy?
