Cameron, not on your life. Would'nt trust him in a million years

Its amazing how a decision could be made about desiring change of a national leader
simply because he does not speak like Obama. Really amazing!!! Only in Britain!
No two people are the same and its very unfair to compare Gordon Brown and Obama on
that level alone.

Obviously Gordon Brown has strengths that maybe Obama does not have and I think the
two should not even be compared. The destinies of the US and Britain are very
different and therefore their leaders.

no, i don't think so, what we need is a good dictator

omg not this chap he cant even organise his own party how can he do anything to save the economy his sums dont even add up.............we are lucky we had brown in charge when the world economy collapsed if we had this idiot we cud have ended up like the icelandic people with all bankrupt banks/.building societies and huge unemployment que....like spain......long live gordan brown

Gordon Brown has always left me feeling morbid and suicidal. This guy and his bunch of acolytes, pretending to be a government, while they construct their police state, hafe scared me for decades. Gordon can never keep a straight face when talking about how he is going to spend everyone's money, now that it has all gone, he starts printing his own to make him look good. It is so sad that there are many who never knew and more who have forgotten the hyper inflation 70's.

Now,the Tories will have to be the one's to sort out the economy yet again. After all. it was John Major's legacy that Gordon relied upon to fund his over zealous spending plans. The fact that we endured the privations to create a better future and now it has been squandered by the scottish mafia in Downing Street.

The sooner we fix the real problems, the sooner we can get on with our lives again and pray we never have another labour goivernment to destroy this country.

I would vote for anyone who would bring discipline back to the schools - including the the cane if necessary. 'Dogooders' have ruined this country. We need to get back to the old standards, both discipline and teaching.

Nothing to choose between them really - both have been 'selective' in the way they've dealt with the current expenses scandal. Both have a moribund bunch of losers attached to them and both are wildly out of touch with the ordinary working man in the street.
The old saying "You've 2 choices - Bob Hope and No Hope" springs quickly to mind...

It's funny you should mention the word 'smarmy' because that's exactly how I and many of my friends feel about Cameron! In fact we use the word 'sleazy' which I think might be closer to the truth. Fact is I prefer the 'boring' label over 'a smarmy sleaze' anyday, because I know which characteristic I would trust out of the two. I also just wish Cameron would stop demanding an election...it actually is not up to him and methinks it belies a man who knows that given another year and the global recession (who according to Panarama was solely the fault of the Americans, and Spain France and Germany have just announced that they are worse off from the fallout than we English!)behind us we will once again not be having stupid/ignorant knee jerk reactions - like Cameron - and see Brown for the wise but boring politician that he is. Do you not think Thatcher, Blair , Cameron et al were not fully aware of the expences debacle before this fiasco and did they pull the plug - NO WAY but at least Brown is actually sorting it!!!
Wonder if Cameron plans another photo shoot on a lovely British beach again this Summer before taking off on a flotilla of boats owned by his multi millionnaire entourage. I know whose pockets he'll be lining if he should get into power.

Why must CHARISMA take place over good, common sense care for what is best. How shallow can we be that a celebrity face, no matter what rubbish it is spouting, is considered better than someone who is sincere and genuinely cares. Why is it so un-cool to support goodness and kindness? Where have we lost our fundamental values of what is worthwhile - and set them against popularist rhetoric and easy bucks and shock tactic headlines? To say that Gordon Brown is not passionate about what he is doing is ridiculous. Every time he makes a speech, it comes from the heart and is delivered with unswerving committment to his job and getting the country through. I find it inconceivable to think that anyone with true vision could consider David Cameron is even on the same page! Charisma? If that's what it has come down to, that we vote for the man who has the cleverest turn of phrase, despite what his lack of policies are - I utterly despair of the human race as a whole.
