Is the ANC splitting?

Wishful thinking Skinner. By now you should realise this place will NEVER be a 1st world country. You can long for the "good old days" as much as you'd like, it's just not going to happen. This is Africa.

Africa is a tough country but never a boring one. :)

Under normal situations, yes, there is little hope for SA.
But now, the ANC is weak, there is division amongst its upper ranks and actions are resulting as an effect. Now is the time for opposition parties to kick in. I would expect they could start by making a strong-worded media statement, criticizing the current f-up, calling on all South Africans to join the fight against the ANC. This I expect within the next 24h. Then, as part of a longer-term campaign, they should start a massive project to find and reach out to each South African possible, even the ones in the remote corners of the country, and educate them about (1) the current situation with the ANC and the f'ed-up country and (2) the benefits of voting for a new(?), stronger opposition party. And BAM! You have a new party at the lead of the country by 2010. Then one thing after the other follows... all problems addressed... and by 2015 our children can play safely outside, we can all take public transport to work and all problems sorted out - just like a 1st world country. Sounds like a dream yes but NOW is the time to act and it can become reality!!!

I know and have heard of a lot of people who have lost faith in the ANC and they say there's no other party to vote for and so therefore they won't vote at all. My brother for example has lost faith in the ANC and says he won't vote at all. I think that the DA or ID, etc should somehow do a campaign and let people know that they MUST vote for another party if not the ANC.

I don't vote at all either. And I wouldn't vote even if you gave me a grand of cold hard cash.
 
The ANC will split- but not yet.

The soonest we can expect to see an ANC break up as I see it is when the
' struggle generation ' goes to the great voting booth in the sky.

At best ( or worse ) those disaffected with the ANC will not vote for them - but not for anyone else either.

No no no no no no no! Stop saying that! Everyone just stop saying that! Stop seeing colour! The DA is NOT a white party. I think the correct phrase people are looking for is: "The DA is a competent party".

Please. Just. Stop.

You know, that's actually very sad. They did a survey in the states to see how much a person's vote is worth to them. Most of them said they would give their vote for an iPod... and this after people died fighting for their freedom.

You have no idea how important your vote is and how much blood has been spilled for you to vote.

The elections next year are a foregone conclusion. Zuma will be president, and he will be restrained until the day after the 2010 WC and all the tourists have gone home. Then they will cut the ropes and he will unleash a sh1tstorm on SA. One I plan to give a miss by leaving SA.

My vote is not important at all, it makes no difference. Some say it gives me a right to complain. What's the use of having a right to complain when they laugh at you and Charles Nquakula says we must either suck it up or sod off.
