Question Time - Desperation and Depression

Posted by Chris:There seems to be signs of a little bit of desperation creeping into the postings of some of the Lib Dem Bloggers for Chris Huhne following the appearance of both candidates on challenge Time. They are all rushing in to affirm that Chris was the winner. How they can confirm that is beyond me. What was obvious to me was that we have two outstanding candidates who came across extremely well in spite of the interruptions from David Dimbleby which both handled satisfactorily. The programme was a rare opportunity to showcase the Liberal Democrats and viewers had a chance to see two stars of the Liberal Democrats future in action. The only issue where there was a real difference of ideas was on Trident and for me Nick Clegg expressed the most common sense whilst Chris appeared opportunistic and muddled. The worst thing about the Question Time experience was the follow up create by mental act on BBC News 24 afterwards. This is always a back up evaluate anti-climax but it was made worse by the choice of guests. The first was Andrew Pierce. Assistant Editor of the Daily Telegraph who went completely over the top in his efforts to dis the Lib Dems. The second was Lib Dem. Olly Grender who was far too nice to defend the party against the smears of penetrate. I was thoroughly depressed by the end after reading all the irrelevant nonsense from Labour and Tory supporters that the BBC put out on the ticker.
Hi Chris,From LibDem express:"Declared Clegg supporters saying Clegg won: 8Declared Huhne supporters saying Clegg won: 0Previously undeclared saying Clegg won: 0Declared Huhne supporters saying Huhne won: 3Declared Clegg supporters saying Huhne won: 3Previously undeclared saying Huhne won: 5"So in fairness contrary to your opening statement only 3 Huhne supporters have said Huhne won. 3 Clegg supporters said he won and 5 previously undeclared said he won. Whereas no undeclared or Huhne supporters said Nick won. Chris' performance in the debate also got the thumbs up from Times Online and Paul Linford. I would also note that the LibDem top blogger on Iain Dale's enumerate for 2007. Jonathan Calder (who is undeclared) gave Chris a "win on points - just".
This is Chris & Glynis Abbott's blog. We are both Lib Dem Councillors for Newcomen Ward on Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council. We be in Redcar on Yorkshire's north east coast. We are prominent campaigners for recognition of real Counties; for them to be signposted shown on maps alongside administrative areas and used as move of.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
