Partly Facetious: Did Erdogan succeed in convincing Nawaz to abandon anti-Gilani plan?

"So now what?"
"Well I am not sure whether the Turkish Prime Minister succeeded in convincing Nawaz Sharif to abandon the go Gilani go campaign..."
"I don't understand why the PPP is determined to keep Gilani. Didn't we hear stories a few weeks ago that the list of prime ministers' after Gilani has been finalised; and that all of them will dutifully enter the PM house and then exit it as and when the implementation of the Supreme Court's verdict on writing to Swiss authorities cases is not carried out and..."
"Yes but better sense has prevailed."
"Namely that if all these winning PPP candidates are disqualified for five years then the next elections may not give the PPP party as many seats as in 2008?"
"Good heavens no, PPP is gung-ho about winning the seats. The issue apparently is that the next PM would need to get a vote of confidence from the assembly and that means the coalition partners would get yet another opportunity to demand yet another pound of flesh."
"Ahhhh, many a pound of flesh has been sacrificed on the altar of reconciliation."
"Indeed so the party is not eager to change the PM any more."
"Good thinking and lets be honest it serves everyone in the party: Gilani sahib can continue to strut around for another few months, the other party stalwarts who were candidates for the prime minister's post would be spared the possibility of being disqualified."
"So did Erdogan succeed in convincing Nawaz Sharif to abandon his go Gilani go strategy?"
"I don't know about that but discussions are reportedly ongoing between the two parties with respect to not making a racket during the budget speech."
"Even with the current state of the economy and the expected election mode budget and..."
"The PPP is dealing with Dar the pacifier."
"Dar was also the Finance Minister..."
"Sartaj Aziz is a much better candidate for that post."
"But he is not a relative and..."
"And who said there was no nepotism in PML (N)."
