Imran Khan doesn't enjoy that advantage (That's why he insists on limiting the application of Constitution's articles 62 and 63 to 'taxes and financial irregularities' only). <br /><br />Bhutto had tremendous confidence in his mission and leadership qualities. He did not try to import and depend upon the 'electables' from other parties. In elections he nomintaed most of those candidates whom people never knew before and still he won a resounding success. Imran Khan seems to be lacking in confidence in his political idealogy as a leader. That's why he 'swerves from extreme to extreme on both sides of his agenda' as very aptly said by you. <br />When people see same old faces around him imported from other parties, they feel he has nothing new to offer and no real change to bring in their lives.<br /><br />Bhutto had one idealogy from the day one (what he termed as 'Islamic Socialism') and he steadfastly stood by that till shortly before his demise years later. Imran Khan is from the very outset shaky, inconsistent and clearly bipolar idealogically. He is trying to sail in two boats. That's why he neither enjoys the all out support of liberals nor a whole hearted backing of the Mullah.<br /><br />The process of decision making in PTI leaves much to be desired. Some recent u-turns and retractions coupled with public displays of differences of opinion between the top leadership speaks volumes about Imran Khan's leadership and his party's inner strength and cohesion.<br /><br />Latif<br />Briglatifnoreply@blogger.com
