Not bad

The UK elections went fairly well, I think, given that there was basically no way Blair was going to lose (and if he had, to who? Howard?). The key, I think, is that the Liberal Democrats made huge gains (highest number of seats since the 1920s) but Kennedy has said he won't be watering down their policies (like more taxes for the rich) in order to attract Tory voters, which is a nice change from, say, Labour.
