John Major was a decent bloke who enjoyed cricket; you could imagine having a pint in the saloon bar with Harold Wilson; Harold Macmillan went off in August and blasted small birds out of the sky; Ted Heath went sailing and enjoyed music. Gordon Brown's problem is that he is only a politician: he could be the most successful Prime Minister in history and the general public would still not understand or warm to him A serious interest in politics is so alien to the majority of the population that someone whose raison d’etre is politics is viewed with incomprehension.

Then again, I tend to be wrong... Great post but I still think Gordon will outlast Cameron and hold on to power (just) in 2010.

Rather, Gordon seems a more intellectual, more intelligent, less decisive and less likeable version of Alec Douglas-Hume. It seems a bit unfair that he is not also the umpteenth Earl of Fife.

I think he waited too long and that has affected him and this is a key difference with Blair. Love him or loathe him Blair was sure of what he wanted to do and where he was going and was totally confident that was right. Brown has two years to recover...I dont for a second expect him to win next time bit it could be close...who knows....

Surely after the lies & deceit Blair practiced on those liberals foolish enough to support him, people would have woken up long ago... but now it's happened. This is the ultimate evidence that having a high IQ doesn't qualify anyone for anything. Even if Camoron wins the next election, I'll still be celebrating, because lowlife like Caroline Heart Of Flint & John Hutton have got to lose.
