On Early Elections

This blogger needs convincing. Why are early elections in Lebanon such a bad idea?

“In a democracy, when a large amount of people demonstrate, you go to the ballot boxes; this is the natural thing to do”. Thus explained a member of the AK Party, the ruling party in Turkey, to the BBC anchor why his Leader P.M. Erdogan decided to conduct early general elections.
 
The “large amount of people” he was referring to was the hundreds of thousands of people who demonstrated against the candidacy of AK’s Abdullah Gul to the Turkish presidency. A paltry percentage, compared with the huge demonstration that the opposition organized in Lebanon on December 1rst.
 
When Aoun (pictured above) and Hezbollah ask for early elections, the March 14 media immediately ridicules them. And frankly, I fail to see why. 
 
By vehemently opposing such elections, March 14 leaders are giving the impression that their current parliamentary share is the best they could ever have, and that they are trying to lock in their position. Are they really that weak electorally?
 
I am puzzled. March 14 Christians keep saying that Aoun is losing popularity, but yet unlike Aoun, they are scared from going to the ballot boxes. Don’t they trust the judgment of the Lebanese people?
 
Why doesn’t March 14 throw the ball in the court of the opposition by saying that they agree to elections only if the opposition agrees on an electoral law? Is it true that March 14 are blocking elections because people like Nayla Mouawad would lose if a new electoral law based on smaller district was agreed?
 
I sympathize with March 14, but I fail to see why they don’t want early elections. Could anyone please convince me?
