Why Masinde is Raila's Greatest Asset

I decided to cut and paste this one from Nipate.com

Masinde

I know you want a comrade in wasting life over Raila- hence your recent direct attacks on me. You have sought to create the impression that I am acting at the behest of Raila and that I am his "youth-winger" at this site.

Let me repeat what you know but choose to ignore: I am not a Railaist and just like your repeated rants about Raila have never affected him negatively so is your repeated claims to the contrary bound to fail. As some very observant lady pointed out you are a one-issue netter and should Raila drop dead, you would be forced to eat poison and die in a hurry too in the hope that you will continue your "occupation" on the other side. Such is your devotion to the man! You see the Tick and the Rhino bird are both condemned to live on the Rhino! None has greater "rights" than the other. Even if the Rhino might prefer the bird, it knows that it needs the ticks to feed the bird so as keep the it in place to help scare away the irritating flies.

Lets look at how effective your rants about Raila have been?

Are you aware that Talking About The Topic Of Raila generates publicity for the man - regardless of whether what you say is "positive" or "negative". That is the problem of engaging in propaganda with ignorance. So you are in fact doing your avowed enemy the greatest service of getting him publicity. As we know all publicity is good!

You also sanitize the man: By constantly repeating the things you write about him, you are unwittingly sanitizing him against the very poison! I sometimes wonder whether he pays you to do that very important service for him. After all you have lost your credibility in exactly that issue. In other words there is hardly anybody who imagines that you can offer a balanced view of anything involving the man. Yaani: Even if Raila were raping Martha Karua on Uhuru Highway and you ran to tell the police, they will dismiss you.
There are parallels in Kenya when it comes to this issue:

#1 When Redykyulass Comedians started their satire about Moi, the conventional wisdom was that they should be banned and harassed in to the nearest mental asylum. Luckily for all, Moi was then employing a team of spin doctors who advised strongly against it. Instead the group was "assisted" and ended up making Moi more popular than any campaign.

#2 Political Foreshadowing: (hopefully so you can understand why I repeat that you are irritating rather than support a ban against you): It is an established practice in Westminster for a troublesome MP (of the Shikuku caliber) to be given some sensitive information about a controversial project the government plans to set up. The information would be largely correct but simply exaggerated. Once out, the government of course laughs off the claim before laying out the real project. People sigh with relief that the monstrous description by the MP was after all wrong. There is a short or no debate.

So, you are doing a lot for Raila not me. You assist him to prevent any reasonable debate and a keen examination of his policies, actions, pronouncements and political direction. With you stifling the debate, Raila is a free man. I have a feeling you advise Uhuru too for his “fury” coincided you’re your increased lunacy against Raila. The debate is dead! Who wins it by default?

Nobody has been on Raila’s case as closely as me. I however  prefer informed criticism of the man rather than emotional knee-jerk reaction to everything he does. Telling a lie about a fellow is the worst you can do. The principle: Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus  comes calling rather early.

I do not support his presidential ambitions and do not believe he can win. I have urged him to find a young man to run for office. I am on record proposing Ruto (before he lost himself completely).

So the “Railaist” label will have a very hard time sticking.

You on the other hand remain his greatest asset. Whatever you say about him attracts laughter or rolling eyes. Thus you manage to cause any serious discussion about Raila to Die Upon Departure! Because most people just get lethargic, tired and bored and never look at it. That way, you are a greater supporter of Raila and Railaism than Kichwa Mbaya.
