The first phase was the riskiest, with Keshubhai patel dissidents, rich rural farmers arrested for stealing electricity, rural area etc
The Satta markets which are more accurate give 46 seats to BJP, a loss of 7 seats
In the next phase, the easy phase, Modi should hold on, which means a net BJP total of 120

This seems accurate. I personally dont think there is any doubt about whether Modi will make it or not. What would be more interesting to see is the type of victory. After the wins in corporations and panchayats the dissidents were on a low already but a lot of money has been pumped in from dilli.
Yes Modi does seem to have a cult following and that will either make or break him. But for now he enjoys sabhas with lakhs attending and answering his questions on who is maut-kaa-saudagar.
Word is if you want to ensure a win, get Modi to speak for you.. <!--emo&
