Naturally they wanted the old lot out, but did they really imagine he'd be any good? I was too young at the time to have any views :) But I think now we have learnt not to get overexcited, which is why there is little enthusiasm for Camoron.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('2703','asquith'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('2703','asquith','Yes, it seems strange to me that people got so excited over Blair\'s election.

And just like in 1997, your hopes will be quickly and brutally dashed on the rocks as the heir to Blair continues merrily down the one-world neo-liberal, neo-conservative, neo-whatever agenda.

But aye, it’ll be good to see these bastards vanquished.
