Browned Off - and facing another charisma crisis

Can you imagine how deflated Gordon must be feeling today after an appalling day at the polls yesterday? It really proves my point that real leaders must have charisma to command a following and not just an over abundance of intelligence and self belief.

Gordon won’t be the first Number Two to have aggressively and conspiratorially displaced their boss only to find they have neither the guile, guts nor panache to fill his (or her) shoes but surely he will be regretting losing his place in history as ‘The Best Chancellor ever’ to become known as ‘The worst Prime Minister in living memory’. Ergo ego!
