Christ Almighty, apparently the Lib Dems peeled off a solid Labour seat in Manchester.

I wonder how many "Floridas" will exist in the UK tonight.
To: MadIvan
Especially when all the polls showed a decent majority for Labour and not much noise from the Tories.
This could be a pretty big night for the Conservatives if this holds up.
NEWBURY: WOW!
To: Don'tMessWithTexas
I say they (with LibDem help) will hold Labour to a hung parliament...I predict about 240 Conservatives and 60 LibDems, plus about 30 others...
To: GiveEmDubya
Am getting the feeling their reporters and analyst have the same stunned look our anchors had this past election when we picked up Senate seats and Kerry lost after early exit polls were wrong.

So I'm watching Gordon Brown speaking right now. Is it my imagination or does his wife look distracted there? Like she's thinking about what colour curtains she wants in 10 Downing Street?
To: Nucluside
We've got a disenfranchised voter recount in Manchester!
BBC pundits cannot believe it...
To: Raycpa
Labor loses Manchester to lible dems.

Won't the Lib Dems align with Labour if there's a hung parliament?
To: what's up
Newbury to the Tories, I believe.
Or is it Newberry?

Exit polls mean nothing. I only go by actual, real numbers - and real percentages - before I determine someone as elected.
