When people keep voting for politicians regardless of their tainted character, pathetic performance and with no credible expectations of change, then political leaders look upon voters as fools. Only the assets of our leaders are growing disproportionately during their tenure.  The people of Goa are unhappy with the fact that politicians are changing parties like they change their clothes. Goans are fed up with such politics and want to teach such politicians a lesson.
