While Manmohan Singh has already been declared the Congresss prime ministerial candidate,the party is not shy of playing the PM card in the Nehru-Gandhi family pocketborough of Amethi. Family friend Capt. Satish Sharmas common refrain at five public meetings in Amethi addressed by Rahul Gandhi last Saturday was: Twenty-six years ago,I had come here with Rajivji. He was then party general secretary and within a year he became Prime Minister. Similarly,Rahulji is today general secretary and you yourself know what is going to happen next. His remarks were followed by cheers from the crowd as Rahul looked on.
