Do you think Rahul Gandhi has come a long way from being called as a Pappu?

I am still of the opinion that he has got everything served on his plate and has a long way to mature and become an efficient leader. He is still away from the grounds of realty and has to learn a lot on his own. He is more in celebrity mode than in reality mode. He is reaping everything because he is born as a Gandhi, there is no individual credibility that he has earned. That is my view. 

In all fairness , I feel that he has become somewhat better . He certainly has become more confident to the extent where he has openly said that he would like to become the PM ...but , all said and done there is no real commitment in him nor is he the kind who has any ideologies or far reaching vision. Everything he does seems forced..ideally he would like to Lord it up without having to do much .

He is speaking what he is being told. His only quality is that he belongs to Gandhi- Nehru family otherwise there are better leaders in congress party with better credentials. He will become PM only when other opposition parties would accept him as PM candidate and the way things are going on he has no chance whatsoever.  He has yet to learn few more tricks of the trade imho.

Other parties have declined him as a PM candidate. He has again given them a chance to mock him.

Unless Congress party gets a majority number of seats , Rahuls claim of becoming the PM will remain a pipe dream and nothing else.. each one of the opposition party has it's own candidate wanting to become the PM right from Lalu, Mulayam his son, Mayawati and even the south leaders . His very pronouncement at this juncture shows his naivety and political immaturity..

You are right he is only speaker, words are not of him, only tongue is of Rahul Gandhi.

Recently, during one of his election rallies he kept criticising Karnataka government for being corrupt and claimed that withe the support of the people, he would bring back congress rule in the state all the while forgetting that it is congress who is ruling the state. How can we say he has become better and mature?

There was a time when he wore a torn kurta and showed it to the people gathered , commenting that the PM wears a suit worth lakhs but look at me and my kurta ! The dynasty slaves might applaud but others would only laugh at it ...

Karnataka verdict has again shown him mirror. He has to work a lot on himself. These political dramas won't buy him votes.

True...once, people would have voted for him for just being a Gandhi (that too a false one) but now people have woken up and won't fall for their gimmicks no matter how hard they try!

Rahul routs Congress in Karnataka. A month before he started campaign, there was no chance of BJP in Karnataka. His campaign favored BJP. People have rejected his divisive politics. Indian is rising above issues like Lingayata community and voting change. 

I think Rahul Gandhi is going down the hill ever since he became president of congress party. Congress party will have to look for a different leader or the members will see elsewhere.

The Congress will never do that because they know that without a Gandhi to rule them they become rudderless. So either way there is not much hope because the days of their glory are over with our population having seen through the manipulative dynasty rule

yes congress had bitter experience of it. They Tried sita Ram Kesri, president of congress. Indeed Rahul have not ideology, he depends of others.
