Although the BJP mercilessly beat the drum of her foreign birth - she's the Italian-born widow of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi - what may have counted more tellingly against her was the BJP's record and the timing of the poll. Last year Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had rallied the nation behind his government when it tested its first nuclear weapons; then he did the same early...
