Okkoma kale Wimal. SF on the other hand did that himself leading to degrading of his image.The campainge didn't penetrate the rural areas. I met people who weren't even aware that he was in the army let alone the former commander. So they didn't use its potential to rake in the Sinhala buddhist vote like MR did.Having contradicting statements. He did suck up to mahinda on itn before the election. He could have gone on record saying the war victory and the development country was two things and his stance was against corruption. Instead he went on to say that Mahinda and GOta didn't get any new weapons etc. Lost his credibility.Lack of media coverage in the state media and te negative coverage that was given. This was ofcourse Mahinda's fault but SF knew what he was getting in to.I think actions speak louder than words. MR won the war, thats what the people saw. SF also won the war but he was not a public character in it. Then he couldn't restrain him self when accused of wrong doing. The add showing him calling people kalawadda did a lot of damage. I know quite a few people who would've voted for SF if he didn't say that.He could've won. But didn't. Dan ithin MR monawa karai da kiyala balamu.Good luck.</blockquote>
