I think that apart from the times when he was being terrible, he's done not bad... Considering that he was only voted in because of who he wasn't, that's not a bad achievement.

As they admitted themselves- there was too much spin in the early years and they got the habit nailed. I just think we need a change. Perhaps when he and Bush are out of office, a real sense of change may scent the air.

Though I really doubt the next will be any better and, lets face it, even if we got the best PM in history, there are far too many pointless, self serving beureaucrats between him and us- lots of people in cushy numbers who obviously don't want to change the status quo.

Here's a prediction.When Brown takes over he has a problem in that he can't call an election cos he will lose.He needs to do something dramatic to restore Labour's credibility if they are to have a dogs chance of winning.
His answer?A total U turn on Iraq,with a rapid drawdown of troops and a complete withdrawal within six months.Brown will then be able to claim credit for getting us out of the mess we are in and go to the country on the strength of that.
You read it here first.

He was so smug and false, difficult to argue against (obnoxious defiance), even harder to believe. He wont be missed

Doesn't obnoxious defiance cover many in the political game, though?
