Who did we want to win? I was thinking this is good news but maybe not according to your post.

We generally support the "Tories" (Conservatives), especially those like Thatcher and Churchill. David Cameron very openly and publicly moved leftward to gain more of the youth vote (basically a Jeb Bush). While this election was a HUGE loss for the Labour and Liberal Democrats, it was not a huge gain for the Conservatives, other than just barely hitting the magic 326 number for a true majority. The Scottish National Party stole most of the gains (+50 seats to CON's +22), but they are also very Left-ward. The SNP is the #3 party in the House of Commons now, even though they only got 4.8 percent of the vote. UKIP (anti-EU, and for strong opposition to Islam) got 12.8 percent of the vote. They should do very well in 2020.

So the good news items are that their Left is fracturing and unhappy, their slanted polling is getting revealed for the fraud that it is, and their Right is looking like they might have a good future in 2020. Maybe they can even convince Cameron to quit moving left to grab votes... but maybe he will see this win as encouragement to run even further left. We shall see.

Nigel Farrage. But this is the next best thing as Labor got crushed. Especially sweet as before the election they were making noise about passing anti-Islamophobia laws to curry the favor of the savage (Muslim) vote.

Nextrush, and constant bitchers like him/her/it, will never be happy until they, themselves, are elected to every office.

No one will make him/her/it happy.

Since napscoordinator is for Walker {I think} I'd bet dollars to donuts that Nextrush will find too many problems with Walker to make him/her/it happy.

The way I see it, the media is your contra-indicator.

If they're for 'em, I'm agin 'em.

I think the biggest issue is keeping getting an out-of-EU vote at some point in the next 5 or 10 years. I think Milliband wasn’t going to allow a vote.

Cameron and Milliband were like Boehner and Pelosi on immigration.

I was hoping Cameron would have to form coalition with UKIP.

Cameron also wanted to arm ISIS with McCain.
