- The Congress was a washout in the state in the Lok Sabha polls
- The Muslim League (IUML) actively campaigned against him with the Congress high command. Their grouse: Antony's statement that minorities were wrangling government benefits through collective bargaining. And that Gulf NRIs were sowing the seeds of disparity between haves and have-nots. The League was insulted.
- Antony's pre-poll patch-up with Karunakaran did not go down well with partymen. It was seen as opportunism.
- He made tall promises he couldn't fulfil. Made him unpopular.
