Meanwhile, why are the Conservatives so far ahead in UK opinion polls? Does anyone really think they would have kept us out of recession by putting stricter controls on the banking industry? Kept us out of Iraq? I'm starting to think they might be a slight improvement on civil rights and privacy issues, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Because they're not Gordon Brown, nobody much believes the LibDems will ever actually achieve government (though gods, I wish), and there's no other credible alternative. But mainly because they're not Gordon Brown.

The small fact that they will do everything crap that Gordon Brown does but more so is one that will dawn on everyone soon after election day, unfortunately.
