Blair's lies are fast catching up on himself

"Will the Daily Mirror headline of November 4 2004 asking about the state of mind of the American electorate "How can 59.017,382 people be so DUMB?" soon have to be mirrored appropriately in the UK!!"

1. Blair will win, and comfortably.
The big difference politically between the US and the UK is that the opposition in the UK is far, far worse than Labour, and electing them over Blair would do nothing but make things much worse.

Blair will be gone within the next couple of years, don't worry.

3. I have sent this to Charles Kennedy

who has discreetly taken most of the advice I have given him in the last few weeks (and I had simultaneously informed on the DU.)

Just watch how he strategically uses this quote in the next couple of days.

Iraq has moved to centre stage in the British elections now. It was not by accident.

6. Blair's biggest problem is not Howard or Kennedy.
It is apathy. The worse the campaign seems to be going, the more Labour voters will dutifully tramp to the polling stations. They want to give Blair a scare, not hand power to the Tories.

2. I was wondering the same thing last night
when I read the post about the Labour hecklers sent to harass Howard.

4. Do they have diebold voting machines?
I'd vote for the devil I didn't know.
