I've been pleased with Tony Blair. Look in the dictionary next to the word resolve and you will find a picture of GW Bush. Look up stalwart, and there is Tony.

You might not be so please if you were paying rates (taxes) in Britain. Tony's not bad for a Labour leader (he's a "third way" lib, like Clinton) but he's still Labour. Don't get me wrong, I give him all the credit in the world on the Iraq issue, but if I was a Brit I'd be voting conservative. Don't forget that Duncan Smith and the Conservatives have been solid on the war as well. They could have taken advantage of the situation to bring Blair down, but they didn't. They've opposed him where he's wrong (on domestic issues) and unhesitatingly supported him where he's right (on Iraq) with none of the odious political "positioning" our own Democratic Party has cynically engaged in.
