Conventional Wisdom Index: Week 3

So who's had a good week? Are their fortunes on the up or on the wane? My Conventional Wisdom Index seeks to track the fortunes of the major players in British politics. Next installment next Saturday...

Tony Blair
Local election campaign launch fails to quell rumours of more discord with Brown
David Cameron
Made a slight boob with his UKIP comments but Spring Forum loved him
Ming Campbell
Where's Ming. Hasn't been seen for 3 weeks.
Gordon Brown
Again said little, but didn't need to as he watches Blair slowly self combust
Labour Party
Local election launch a failure but slight improvement in the polls
Conservative Party
UKIP row & Caroline Jackson's comments on Cameron & green issue not helpful in lead up to Spring Forum, but Party responds well to Cameron's call for change
Liberal Democrats
Totally anonymous (again) apart from confusion over whether they still support a local income tax

George W Bush?
The Reputation of Politics?
Or shall we assume "enough said"?

Keep up the good work, Iain
