......they support him, until the nominations!!!!!
That's what I was thinking, and then beat him at the elections...
One, Musalia is less polarising than Odinga. He is the gentleman of Kenyan politics. But I find it interesting that people who criticise Kibaki's 'silent' rule are rooting for Mudavadi!
Secondly, He is close to G7 key luminaries in background. Born and brought up in Moi's KANU, he seems naturally close to Kalonzo and Ruto.
Thirdly, and most important, the Raila factor. 2012 is just like 2002. We have so many voters who want to vote for 'anyone else but Raila', just like the 'Yote Yawezekana Bila Moi' wave in 2002. So when anyone challenges Raila, this tricky voting block backs him.
