I know, that's why I specified leadership. Unlike FPM, FM is distributing roles and delegating the "bashing jobs" to the 2nd level figures and journalists.

Not really! Even though "tanket el zeit" mentality seems to have become also part of FPM leader's duties, there are people everywhere who can be bought and sold.
If I was to vote in an FM known area, why would I vote to anyone beside FM? Why would I vote to Karami or Hoss? Is FPM offering me any alternative? FPM didn't even go out in numbers to vote for Haraket El Cha3b candidate in Aug 2007!
Why would I vote for the militias who scared the hell out of me in May 2008?
Why would I vote for someone who congratulated the Lebanese when armed thugs were roaming the streets and asking me to remove the Lebanese flags from my balconies?
Saad might not be perfect, but what's the alternative in FM strongholds?

This is crucial and has many implications on the leaders as well as the base attitude and thinking. |
Even though FM pays for some of its base, but be sure that FM's base is huge, and for sure, the largest majority of FM base is not getting paid.
Note that FPM is showing lately a similar attitude to FM leaders' when
FPM publicize its charitable activities.
What's FPM doing about FM's base? Is it taking their fears into consideration? Why does GMA always seem to be addressing his very own base, and even more focused, the Christian voters of his base?
