"Reports indicate that the PPP will not field a candidate from any buy election seat from where Mian Nawaz Sharif will stand."
"A man with over 60 percent approval rating is hardly likely to be worried about any candidate that the PPP will field."
"Right, but then the PPP could field a very popular candidate for the seat in question, a local man who has done much good for the people of the area..."
"Let me restate the results of the most recent survey. PPP's approval rating is only 17 percent so if elections are held today there is no way the party will be able to form a government."
"Right but some individual PPP leaders are quite popular in their areas, you can't deny that surely."
"If President Zardari were to stand for elections opposite Nawaz Sharif even then..."
"The where is important my friend."
"How about Larkana?"
"A Bhutto stronghold but President Zardari will have to stand from Larkana against Nawaz Sharif for me to believe you."
"Oh shush. You can't seriously believe that Nawaz Sharif will win from Larkana against President Zardari!"
"It feels good to rile you. Sometimes I think you are more of a die-hard Jiyala than Rehman Malik."
"I am proud to be a Jiyala."
"I think you need to revisit the term Jiyala. Maybe the term Zardis, the President's pale warriors, would be more apt."
"I won't dignify your statement with a response."
"And so another Zardi hath spoken."
"I don't mind: these days we are in the majority. Where is the President by the way?"
"He is in Karachi again."
"Why there? Surely after the blast Lahore is where he should be."
"He merely condemns all the blasts."
"True, and besides since when did the President ever visit the site of a blast?"
