Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

President Pervez Musharraf is said to be lucky in many respects. He carries the support of President Bush. He has the Pakistan Army on his side. He has had two major political leaders in exile, namely, Benazir Bhutto and Mian Nawaz Sharif. He cultivated the alliance of MMA and MQM with his major ruling party PML(Q). He has had a shattered, ineffective and incoherent opposition.
Inspite of his being lucky in so many ways, President Musharraf had the bad luck of picking a collision course with the superior judiciary. Today, it is the superior judiciary which is his main 'foe' and greatest threat to his power.
As far as the man on the street is concerned, he is bogged down with high inflation, unemployment and rampant poverty.
It is said that Pakistan is being managed by 3As i.e. America, Army and Alliances.
Let us see what happens with 3As in the time ahead.
