How long will Tony Blair last as British PM?
Edited on Wed Nov-19-03 05:20 PM by Screaming Lord Byron
Is he mortally wounded?
I reckon he'll be shuffled aside in favour of Brown within six months. His attacks on the Republican Party smack of desperation.

1. it is very interesting
hopefully this would cause a rift between these two
and make the freepers start bashing blair
thus bush will have run off all supporters

3. What's propping Blair up? Bush's support?

2. Wow! I can't believe it! tony the poodle attacking
our favorite "punching bag"! tony gets points for this but nothing will undo his marching to mass Bomb Iraq with the bushhead.

Thanks ever so much for bringing this on DU. "The Mirror" does have it right, no?

5. It's also in LBN. We need confirmation from another source

I think this is a Mirror exclusive, though.

Thanks due to TheWebHead.

4. He'll win the 3rd term
then step down shortly after, hopefully with Lib Dems having made substantial gains on the Tories (& Bush taking up a seat on the board of the Carlyle Group ;)).

Unless something major happens over Iraq (bigger than the Hutton inquiry can provide).

6. Picture this...
W pulls it off and stops a major big bang and Blair helps him. What are the odds that the 33% of determined leftists can win anything against the other 66%? The whole problem with putting all your chips on black or white are the even odds that you will lose.

I want truth and someone in between both extremes will be the one to deliver or at least make the stand.
