Some people have been suggesting a national government comprising Congress and the BJP to counter the menace of the regional parties . Something like that happened in Israel in 1964 when the two major rival parties joined hands after being sick of the armtwisting
tactics of the minor players. My take on this is that eventhough both the BJP and the Congress
secretly wish to decimate the regional parties , it is highly unlikely that the two will join hands - whatever the scenario. However , what is likely to happen is that if by some chance the third front does manage to cobble up a government with the support of either BJP or Congres (from outside or ins ide ) a fter a while ( maximum till 2010 ) the two will tacitly come together to bring it down. It 'll be a sort of national government in reverse.
