Sulking Political Drama ?

The most refreshing news so far in 2011 is about Khairy Jamaluddin's decision to quit politics and "go back to school".


Theories are abound as to why the 'powerful" Son-In-Law of the fifth Prime Minister wants to get out of the ring. Some on the other hand think this is yet another political drama of Malaysia.


If its indeed true could the rookie first term Rembau MP be swimming along with the born-again liberals soon, the likes of RPK or Zaid Ibrahiim and some of their lawyer boys?


Well, with all honesty I hope Khairy has now truly realised the folly of his forceful parachuting into Umno and by extension national politics.


As cunning as politicians are, you can force or buy your way through but you can't stay there ... unless your are genuine.


Even the Prime Minister couldn't help you if the grassroots keep their distance.


With no real support from the ranks of Umno Youth and lack of grassroots support in Rembau, it was only a matter of time.


Chegubard's grassroots popularity has been haunting him too.


There is also talk that Khairy was sulking. ( Read Rocky's MERAJUK KER? )


But why is Khairy sulking, if he is? The recent appointment of Umno leaders at the state level could be a reason, the New Cabinet line-up could be another.

As I said earlier, theories are abound but at the moment I'm taking Khairy's "Going back to school' with a pinch of salt...a BIG pinch that is.



p/s Do they teach real politics in school? ( I know from personal experience that some ABIM-run kindergartens used to)
