You can't keep a good political party down!

Lookee here and enjoy, as I did, the first name of the successful candidate.
I think we've heard rather too much about LD willies lately, but I am very pleased for them really
Things can only get better for the Lib Dems

Gloating, are we, Marina? Mr Hughes seems to be holding up rather well - did you hear him on the Today prog today? Whose your fave candidate atm, then?

Chris Huhne for me I think. I have an innate distrust of Simon Hughes dating back to Tatchellgate, and yes I know PT has publicly "forgiven" him for that campaign!
I liked some of Naughty Mark's policies actually

Even if one were not a LD supporter, I think it is good for the electoral health of the country to have three "mainstream" parties to choose from

Well, Huhne seems to be storming away for a newcomer, doesn't he? Would probably do the LibDems good to have a fresh face. I just love the Lib Dems' current ability to give me watchable news stories while I sweat at the gym - election victories are fine as well as scandals as far as I'm concerned. I think this is an interesting time in British politics.

To lower the tone: what do CK and MO have in common? They both like to get shit faced.

Tatchellgate?? Could someone remind me?

Thanks.

SH campaigned in the same area and used the slogan "Choose the straight option" or something similar.

Riiiight. Hmmm. I don't believe that an individual's sexuality is a matter of public interest... unless they've used it publicly and misled the electorate. Which this would seem to be.

So I still don't know who to vote for (wails pathetically).
