BN the clear winner in this Khalid storm

you can't say the downfall and the break up of the Selangor Pakatan Rakyat government has nothing to do with BN.

BN engineered and executed it very very well. They exploited the water restructuring issue to create distrust among PKR leadership for Khalid. They used the Malay Bible issue to hold Khalid in ransom. They tendered and passed many UMNO cronies' highway projects to Khalid, make the party observers and public perceive that Pakatan Rakyat endorse such policies on tolled highways and eat their own words in one of the major GE manifesto promises. And then they thwarted Anwar's Kajang move to take damage control of such situation, by the masterstroke -- using judiciary to disqualify his candidacy. They can even make the pro-UMNO unity government faction of PAS work with them to further destabilise the PR coalition government.

Now, Khalid is gone, PR coalition government is in chaos. BN won, by landslide, the scale of 7-1 scoreline.
