It's unbelieveable that this sore loser - who calls bloggers goblog and insults them as people who syok sindiri and should be ignored - is still blaming others but himself for the Barisan's Nasional disastrous perfomance in the March 8 polls.
Former Information Minister Datuk Zainuddin Maidin now says Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad must take some of the blame (for BN's poor performance).
The accusations the former Prime Minister made against the Governmenat had swayed the people to vote against the Barisan Nasional, he said.
Can't understand these so-called Umno leaders. They are still in denial and pointing fingers at others rather than at themselves for their defeat.
Here's the story:
Zam: Dr M to blame, too
KUALA LUMPUR: Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad must shoulder some of the blame for Barisan Nasional's worst-ever performance in the recent general election, says former Information Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin.
Dr Mahathir’s various accusations swayed the people to vote against Barisan, he said.
“Laying all blame on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi for Barisan’s losses is not right because it is clear that Dr Mahathir is full of anger and uncontrolled vengeance,” said Zainuddin.
“Maybe he was not aware or maybe he purposely did not want to be aware that his credibility as a former leader is still strong and that his influence on the grassroots, both Malay and non-Malays, is significant.”
“His credibility influenced people into believing what he said and he also lent this credibility to bloggers and websites,” he said when met at his house here yesterday.
Zainuddin said there were three statements in particular that affected Umno’s and Malaysians’ confidence in the leadership in the run-up to the elections.
“The first was when he said he regretted appointing Abdullah as the Prime Minister.
“This was then followed up by Dr Mahathir saying that Abdullah was only meant to be a one-term Prime Minister and that more opposition was needed in Parliament.”
Zainuddin added that the third and most damning statement that was widely accepted by all segments of society was about the role Deputy Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin and his
advisers played in the country’s politics and economy“This even caused Gerakan adviser Tan Sri Lim Keng Yaik to ask Abdullah to get rid of his advisers,” he said.
Zainuddin said he was merely telling the truth when he said that Dr Mahathir could not deny he had played a role in Barisan’s dismal poll results.
“This is not to say that other factors do not count, but Dr Mahathir cannot absolve himself from this.“There have been many opinions in the aftermath of the election but Dr Mahathir being a factor was not really mentioned,“ he added.

Zam...shocker...
In a sense, the idiot is right. Dr M does need to share the blame in some senses for where the ruling coalition stands today.
A example would be putting this moron in place as a minister to begin with.
As jackasses go, Zam is perhaps the best Malaysia has to offer. Thankfully, his best usually always falls short of being mediocre.
SPR made a mistake or perhasp rig the ballot boxes. The opposition is supposed to lose thir deposit.
Tengok muka saya,
Tengok muka saya ,
Sama kan?
Samakan? ... sure the face of a disgrace to the professsion of Rahim Kajai and award named after him!
I think Zam should stop making comments.....what I am scare of is.....the more he comments, the more damage it will cause.
Moreover, it won't help much though.....a senator?????
Kak Ton, some ppl just love the sound of their own voice tht they'l just keep on talking.

Don't be hard on this idiot. He is in denial. That is normal as it comes before acceptance...he will then accept that he fucked it up big time with his stupid mouth. Then there will be despair, desperation, perhaps followed by hope. All of BN is in the state of denial at this time. They want to hold post mortem, etc. Not necessary, I know, but they have never won any prizes for being realists.
Haiyah... no need to wonder why people like Zam still dont get it... These people are beyond stupid! Hehehehe... cannot be taught, cannot be trained, cannot be told, cannot anything! Let them be is the best.. let them make a fool of themselves that is! Hehehe..
Who is ZAM? Why they go and interview him? Is he back to his old job, being a critic?
