David Cameron

Poor David Cameron. What a Guy. I mean God loves a tryer doesn't he but my god but he does try very hard. So David just finished his 'much hailed conference speech' and as the Guardian reports today, Cameron is climbing back up along the polls, slowly after PM Brown's fantastic solo(emn) run since he has taken up office in Sept. However I have come to realise one thing in the last couple of years, perception is everything in life and importantly Politics. See not many people gave Mr. Brown a very good chance of being a "good Prime-minister". Well Lets face it,
he has had a huge baptism of fire, floods, FMD, Blue Tounge, Cobra Meetings, Darfur, UN, Burma and he's only been in office since June! So the illusions that Mr. Brown would not make a good PM because of his solemness & straight-braced approach has proven wrong and he has gone down well with the British electorate. So the clencher is this. Can Cameron really convince the electorate that he really is 1)PM material & 2) move beyond the joke that the Tory party is, to become a credible alternative to the New (New) Labour approach. Cameron's first move is perhaps the second point in question & if the polls are anything to go by, then maybe he too can take that leap of PR magic that Brown took in June and become PM material.
