The power of this Govt depends on popularity of the president.
But it is not possible to run a Govt on that for long,
though they did so for 3 years.
Once that popularity starts to become weaken
whole Govt loses its hold.
According to what I see
I feel it has started to happen.
Actually,
The confidence, vigor and luster
which President and ministers had in the last 3 years
are diminishing fast.
Look at the faces when they speak.
The faces look old and tired.
Compare the Charisma Mahinda had 3 years ago..
and now he looks 10-15 years older after 3 years in power.
Around the eyes have become darker..
Voice is rusty.
Others Voices also does not have the confidence anymore.
They sound like making the motions unconsciously.
Burden of the sins they commit must have the effect on their lives.
When the Nature make someone pay it makes him pay not only with money.
I think going against the law cost them
a lot more of their popularity among common people.
It was not just the mere 20 rupees robbed for every Liter of petrol,
but breaking the law as a thug
made a lot of distance between Govt and people.
Now every arrogant action of Govt would make that gap wider
as it happened in the cases of Sirasa and Lasantha.
Even if the Govt did not do them
most of the people attributed them toward Govt,
for they now believe
that Govt would go to the extent of breaking law if they want.
Their greatest trump card -WAR_ is loosing its impact on people.
Other than SLFP and NFF supporters,
normal people are not interested in war anyway.
Suspense is over. It will be won soon.
They have become only poorer because of the war
as Govt said everything bad happens because of this war.
End of that won't make their lives better,
for none will bring the prices down,
even the high court orders to do so.
People who trusted the Govt has been disappointed.
So now that has started to show its effect on the Govt.
Watch their faces closely when they speak.

When the down slide starts
it becomes more difficult every day.
It looks really sad.
I wonder how Mahinda and Company change the course
and rise again.
It is not impossible
but they have to change their disastrous policies
and become truly honest people.
That may be impossible.
