You forgot Charlie. We wouldn't be tanking at the polls with him still there; people seemed to like him for the right reasons. Also, the direction he was taking the party was much more to my liking than what Clegg and his mysterious besuited friends have in mind (or, come to think of it, where we'd be with the appalling Huhne at the helm). All I can say is good on Adrian Sanders for displaying his pugilistic skills.
I liked Charles Kennedy a lot, but I couldn't imagine him as a future Prime Minister. Nor anyone since. Paddy Ashdown I could very nearly picture in the rĂ´le at a pinch.
I think Shirley Williams is their only truly high-calibre statesman. )-8
