Kerana keacapan itu kalau kita selami dalam-dalam jiwa Mahathir apa yang dilakukan memberi gambaran yang beliau dalam keketaran. Keyakinan yang UBN akan menang bukan untuk ahli Umno dan Najib sebenarnya untuk dirinya sendiri.
Dari segi psikologi apabila orang itu kerap bercakap mengenai sesutau topik, berulang-ulang ternyata dia obses dengan topik itu. Pemerhatian dan prihatin itu ada dua kemungkinan, sama ada dia seronok atau bimbang dengan apa yang dicapkkan itu. Dalam hal ini saya menyuluh Mahathir takut dengan apa yang bakal terjadi kelak.
Hari ini dia mengulangi sekali lagi pernyuataan untuk menyakinkan dirinya. Dia kata UBN akan menang dan satu-satu parti yang mampu untuk mentadbir. Dalam masa sama beliau terus memperkecilkan pembangkang. Isu yang dibawa kali ini katanya, Karpal Singh akan bergaduh dengan Nik Aziz dalam isu hudud.
Sinisnya, Nik Aziz kata potong tangan, Karpal Singh kata jangan. Bila berlaku begitu katanya maka pembangkang akan kelam kabut dan parlimen akan dipenuhi dengan hujah-hujah begitu, mengenai hudud.
Wah begitu sekali Mahathir menghina dan merendah daya fikir dan muslihat politik Karpal Singh dan Nik Aziz. Dia fikir hanya dia saja yang bijak dan orang lain semuanya haprak.
Mahathir masih belum sedar-sedar lagi dan terus masih tidak berpijak di bumi nyata. Atau dia sedar akan kebijaksanaan pembangkang tetapi sengaja diremeh-remehkan untuk menyedapkan hatinya sendiri.
Saya yakin Mahathir sedar malaikat yang beliau tidak kenali yang ditugas untuk memacung leher UBN sudah kian mara ke arahnya. Makanya kerana beliau terlalu ketakutan dan sudah tidak ada obat untuk menenangkan jiwanya maka beliau terpaksa mengeluarkan pandangan dan kritikan yang merendahkan martabatnya sebagai negarawan seperti mana diangkat dan dinobatkan oleh media massa PB.
Sejujurnya dia yang bimbang dan cemas kalau BN kalah bukan orang Melayu. Ia bukan juga para pemimpin Umno, tetapi dirinya sendiri. Mahathir ada sebab kenapa dia perlu mempertahankan agar UBN menang. Kemenangan UBN bukan untuk membela rakyat tetapi melindungi dirinya. Mahathir reti dan faham kalau UBN tidak lagi menjadi penguasaan kedudukannya, penguasaannya ke atas kekayaan yang dihimpun sejak 22 tahun lalu akan hilang.
Peluang untuk beliau megumpul dan mencipta kekayaan bersama keluarganya dan waris politiknya Mukhriz juga akan terlepas. Itu masih lagi boleh ditelan, tetapi apa yang menakutkan ialah kalau kerajaan baru akan bertindak ke atasnya, membuka fail siasatan dan mengutip segala bentuk jenayah yang disorot selama 22 tahun lalu. Apakah di zaman Najib saja ada skandal manakala di zaman Mahathir bersih dan putih? Oh la la...
Sebagai seorang mungkin melakukan jenayah Mahathir tahu akan segala rekod jenayah yang dibuatnya kalau ada. Mungkin bahan bukti beliau sembunyi dan hilangkan, tetapi beliau sedar masih ada saksi hidup yang bila-bila masa sedia tampil ke mahkamah untuk menceritakan segalanya. Inilah yang Mahathir takut menyebabkan dia akan menggunakan apa saja helah, ikhtiar dengan apa saja untuk memastikan Pakatan rakyat tidak menang.
Boleh jadi Mahathir percaya kepada kata-kata Anwar yang telah memaafkannya, untuk tidak mendakwa atas setiap jenis jenayah yang mungkin Mahathir lakukan. Tetapi Mahathir tidak percaya rakyat yang membenci dan kecewa dengannya selama ini berdiam diri. Mereka (rakyat) akan menuntut kerajaan agar mengheretnya ke mahkamah. Ini menyebabkan Mahathir jadi 'terkaba' waktu tidur.
Mahathit tahu ketika itu Anwar tidak akan boleh berbuat apa-apa untuk tidak melaksanakan kehendak rakyat. Adalah bahaya kalau Anwar mengambil sikap 'waafu hu rahim', ke atas Mahathir kerana kalau pendirian itu diambil Anwar pula akan dimurkai rakyat. Jadi hendak tidak hendak Anwar akan merestui tindakan ke atas Mahathir.
Anwar pun selalu berkata, saya sudah maafkan Mahathir atas segala dosa beliau kepada saya, tetapi saya tidak boleh menghalang rakyat untuk bertindak ke atasnya. Jadi saya akan serahkan kepada rakyat.
Ha... inilah yang Mahathir takut menyebabkan dia tidak memanjangkan tidurnya untuk mencari helah dan muslihat bagi memastikan UBN menang. Adalah berbaloi kalau beliau tetap berusaha dan mencari ikhitiar itu kerana demi menyelamatkan nyawa dan kehidupan keluarganya.
Di sini saya tengok kehidupan Mahathir terseksa dibandingkan dengan Abdullah Badawi. Benar Pak Lah tidak seorang perdana menteri hebat, tetapi hari ini jiwa dan hati Pak Lah tenang. Pak Lah tidak jadi seresah dan serisau Mahathir yang masih berhutang dengan rakyat dan Anwar.
Tidak tergamak untuk saya katakan, mungkin Mahathgir suka kalau beliau diambil Tuhan sebelum kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat dibentuk. Maaflah Dir agar kasar sikit...

Mahathir kata BN tak akan menang besar
Pemberian tunai Najib macam beli undi
Mahathir loses patience with Najib...
When I had met up with Tun Dr Mahathir whilst he was still the Prime Minister, I found him to be a person who is constantly thinking, rating, calculating , evaluating and plotting. He governed Malaysia on a series of short term fancies that materialized into many edifices because he was constantly evaluating threats to his rule. And when he decides to pursue a course of action, he gets it done with a clinical precision.
His sacking of Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim coupled with the imposition of capital controls is the clearest example of how Tun Dr Mahathir could secretly hatch a plan and carry out a surgical strike against his political enemies.
However, right now Tun Dr Mahathir faces a different dilemma. Certain quarters of the establishment, from the political, business, Government and the "........" had approached him a while back to voice their fears surrounding the countries political developments. (Others would argue that Tun actually met them and sold himself as the solution to their problems. Many concur that Najib's failure to dispatch Kak Jat was the straw that finally broke the Kamel's back). Nevertheless, the outcome was one and the same.
Everybody concerned had recognized that the Government / UMNO was short on brain and strategic thinking. The "Blue Ocean" strategies of Najib was turning into a Red tide of anger.
Public dissatisfaction was rising and even the Malay base, which UMNO had counted to be its bulwark support was beginning to waver. Even worse, a massive disconnect between Najib and UMNO was beginning to reach crisis levels as the base was growing impatient with Najib's insistence of fielding "winnable" candidates in favour of local warlords. Not helping the situation was the resurgence of Anwar Ibrahim, who was beginning to put some distance between himself and all the allegations that were thrown against him.
They needed an answer, and they were not going to accept anything that came from a laboratory. It had to come from the Don.
Thus Tun began to do what he always used to do. He went around to various UMNO divisions to gauge their temperature as well as "reintroduce" himself to them. However, it was not all smooth sailing there as well as some UMNO Division Heads refused to meet him. Perhaps it surprised him then, but right now he would have realised that their lack of attendance came from explicit instructions from the very top.
Since TDM was being throttled at the base, he attempted to get his message across to the very top using his channel. In clandestine meetings, it was reported that the usually cool and calm Dato Seri Najib lost his patience and slammed his fist on the table . "How dare the old man dictate terms to me! I am the PM!" he thundered. Even Rosmah gave everybody a piece of her mind as well!
So TDM was in a pickle. He knew from his visits that the UMNO base was dead set against any outsiders being parachuted into their territory. With the leadership in Putrajaya completely out of touch with the base, the base had organised themselves into a cohesive pressure group. "If Ambiga could throttle Najib, no way are we going to give in!" they declared. (Yet another effect of BERSIH)
This was getting increasingly difficult. He could not really manage the party (even though he thought he was given the power to do so.) He could not manage the PM, who was secretly livid that the Don had sabotaged his 1Malaysia plan with his Perkasa theatrics. The last option was to take his message direct to the voters.
And so for a bit of time, we were treated to the Don's public pronouncements on Prime Time TV (the media being part of the conspirators who had met up earlier with Tun). But now Tun was in a dangerous territory, he was making pronouncements without any legitimate power. Even worse he knew how severe the problems were but could not offer any "solution-ising." So it was relegated to pleading and scare mongering.
In one of those sound bites, he uttered the famous English idiom, which when taken literally meant that BN was being compared to the source of all evil. Everybody knew what he meant, but this is realpolitik. The Opposition seized on that statement and hounded Tun to no end. The current PM was simply going mad. "No more statements! Stay out of this! I am the PM!"
So now Tun had to do a strategic retreat. Without the power it was no use trying to do anything. The entire plan had been a fiasco. The folk who met him were just voicing out their concerns. They could rant and rave for all they wanted but until and unless he takes up residence in Sri Perdana, there is nothing he could do.
Take then Tun's pronouncements today with that in mind. BN will emerge as a weak government after the election. Najib is going to attempt to buy his way out of trouble with BRIM. And he made sure that the audience knew that it was something he never had to do when he was PM.
In a word, he is frustrated. And he is no longer hiding it. The party is in a mess and the people are pissed.
And his arch enemy is looking increasingly likely of making a Mandela like political comeback. But I doubt he has yet to comprehend the gravity of the last statement.
For if he did, he would have given me a call.- Sir Wenger Khair@pirates-of-putrajaya.blogspot
