AAP's unique position

I feel AAP is in a very unique position in terms of numbers. They can be supported by both Congress even though they have 8 seats and BJP who have 30+.

The bootstrap seem to be done by the Congress. AAP cannot be brought down for next six month. AAP appoints Lokpal and they are referred to corruption done by previous Delhi congress govt. This will bring out lot of scams. If congress decides to withdraw support at the end of six months, then BJP has to support AAP because of the scams against Congress.

Also, it would be prudent for BJP to support AAP as Kejriwal and others would be kept busy ruling Delhi and doing all the work to bring down Congress which is important for the BJP's Loksabha ambitions. If they do not support and AAP government comes down it is to BJP's own peril.

AAP thus seem to be in a unique position where they can be supported by both Congress and BJP at any point in time, provided they make the right moves.
