@Danish Niazi:
You are in a wrong country sir! The twilight zone is in the land of opportunity, specially in the most peaceful cleveland Ohio, or in detroit where one can take a night stroll in a high street without being molisted.

To all Pakistanis who voted for this has-been called Nawaz Sharif, kindly jump off a bridge. Kthxbai.
Congratulations to N league...let us step to pedal and waste the $7 billion that remains in the treasury with another bone headed useless wasteful project from PMLN like yellow cab, metrobus and a bullet train that will run without electricity! You can change the whole world but u can't change kashmiris and their desire to never think of the nation or the future. Results from Punjab clearly indicate that Nawaz and his brothery only care about what they love food...Gajrilla, Dahi Bhalle and Bakery...anything beyond is past comprehension...they will die before they vote against brothery no matter what happens to Pakistan...Pakistan Zero Butts number 1
There's widespread anti-US anger in Pakistan. But would first democratic handover been possible without massive US pressure on the generals?
@Hassan: Couldn't agree with you more. :)
@Jalal Khan: Better not curse the government for no electricity, terrorism and unequality that would prevail in the country, that's what happened when he ruled in the past.
what a shame punjab afsose..................
You are the hope for the country; two commitments that you announced lately will be the measures for your performance if you were to form the next Government.
. No to the so called American war on terror, . Improvement in Pakistan relations with India.
People want peace throughout the world, as the Earth is receiving showers of cosmic rays and will nullify those who are vying for wars.

congratulations for you
He is not mian sahab, he is mian tiger!
ROAR!!!!
Yes the economy under Nawaz Sharif will shift to top gear just like it did in 1998. Some of my fellow Pakistanis are hopeless and have no common sense.
Congratulations Mian Sahib. You ahve done it once again when all negative forces were united to defeat you. You are a true Lion of Pakistan.
It will be good for Pakistan to have a decisive mandate. Fractured mandate is not good for Pakistan. I congratulate Nawaz Sharif for taking an early lead. He is probably the most suitable leader to lead Pakistan. Under him, I think the economy of Pakistan will shift into top gear.
nawaz sharif is in the government frm past 20 years . . still no change . .if laptops nd that bus service is a change then excuse me i dun want such a change .. i want a change where i can move freely on the streets of karachi where i kan sit in my room with fan on where the new passed out officers frm pma are not sent to swat and wanna for being slaughtered by the hands of talibans . . i want a change like that .. then of what credibility u talk of maam? :/
@sehr.siddiqui: oh yes...seems like they have been fulfilling hopes since 1985...(sarcasm)
It was expected as PML-n is the only hope and Nawaz Sharif has a team with credibility.
Congratulations Mian sb . Hoping to have a prosperous Pakistan under your leadership
