and the comments are making this really interesting and to see the Clinton effect is making me laugh.

I'm getting a kick out of the commentary

Some times it's been brutally honest *L*

So far, so good for the Conservatives it seems. No one expected them to do this well this soon.

The Clinton streak is the first thing I thought of when Labour started losing seats or winning by slim margins. I haven't seen anyone but you and I mention the fact either.

Yes, that's the end of Alan Milburn's career. He was ostensibly in charge of the Labour campaign.

Quick run of my nationwide numbers projects 34-35% for Labour. Probably enough for them to hang on, but it sure looks like it is going to be a close one.
