Default The U K agrees with Bush !!!

Blairs win is Bushs win right ?
After losing almost EVERY election in this country, and now it seems internationally....
isnt it time for the left to take a look at THEMSELVES and realize it is they who are out of touch ?
If I lost at poker as often as the left lost elections I would be looking at my game for holes and trying to change so as not to lose.
Maybe Sklansky can write a book on politics.

Your a bit off base here. That claim doesn't make any sense if you understand UK politics. Blair would have had to take puppies and babies and shredded them in a blender to lose that election.

Blair looks like he will get 36% of the vote. Hardly a huge endorsement.

Blair _IS_ the left, your post is a bit strange.

Not strange, just ignorant.

Blair is centre-left, not left as in left-wing.

He's certainly left of center. But the Liberal Democrats are the LEFT party in the UK if I understand it correctly.

That's correct. Blair is left-center, the Conservatives are right-center, and the Liberal Democrats are the left.

The Liberal Democrats in Britain are similar to the Green Party here in the United States.

Default See for yourself

All three major parties in the UK occupy an area from left-of-center to right-of-center. No party is putting forward radical or extreme ideas right now.
