If we accept that.....then on what do we base our future choices??

Surprisingly governments have quite a good record at keeping manifesto promises.
I think Cameron did well at the debate, but then again you expected me to say that.
Nick Clegg won the night though. I didn't like his 'plague on all your houses' style, but I agreed with certain things like increasing the income tax threshold. I'm not sure if we can afford it as a country though at the moment.. but that's the problem with the Lib-dems, they can say what they like, they won't have to implement their policies.
