Lots of wishful thinking - that ends up in everyone lining behind Raila.
That strategy is not tenable. Kalonzo and Weta just waiting to get millions from ODMS - and they bolt out.
NASA and Raila being supported Kalonzo or MaDVD or Weta is NOT TENABLE.
What could work - 2nd Round Strategy - like it worked when OKA denied UDA ground in the by-elections.
That would mean - all of the 5-10of them - retreat and protect their turfs from UDA - and Uhuru tries to splinter Mt kenya.
Hopefully RUto doesn't win 50 plus one - and the decision of who NASA brigade will support - will be sorted automatically.
Raila will come 2nd - and will face RUTO.
Of course the biggest risk is Ruto win 1st round by 50 percent one. 2013 again!
Sakaja, Malala and Savula - are driving maDVD for their own governorship bids. Sakaja is not acting for Uhuru - for Luhya govership voters.
Weta is done with Raila - after he replaced with Orengo and schism in his party. Wamalwa Chris is driving Weta - and Lusaka want to go back and win his seat against Wangamati - both will deliver Weta to Ruto.
Kalonzo used to be driven by Muthama as he financed him - now it appears Kalonzo is independent man - but Mutula Son - and Wambua - Ndeti - all keen to use wiper to governorship in Kitui, Makueni and Machakos. Ngilu attempt to sell Raila will therefore hit a dead end - as Kalonzo is interested - first in winning the 3 governoship of Ukambani -something he doesnt have.

Mdvd is the easiest to string. He is a pompous, panacious WINDBAG - like Miguna - so Raila and Uhuru easily give him katikati hopes. I told you long ago Kalonzo is already in the bag - very desperate, very happy with VP, and Kamba are under Wiper lock & key.
But Ruto is still dreaming about Luhya - esp Bukusu. Mdvd needs to run around to excite them ala 2013. Weta has folded and allowed him to eclipse all Luhya - with all Eugenes, Wangamatis, Wamunyinyis backing Mdvd Weta has no balls nor weight to back Ruto. I also think you are wrong to count on Lusaka - a known Kieleweke functionary - to back Ruto. Lusaka is watermelon type but more likely to go with Handshake.
Note how KIELEWEKE are the ones giving Mdvd false katikati hopes. He is touring and being hosted by Uhuru crew - Lee Kinyanjui and Kimemias - plus Sakaja another Uhuru boy.
