Thumbs up and "ayyyyyyyy!" was the message from Number 10 today. Yes, Henry "the Fonz" Winkler chose today's day of madness to drop in on Downing Street to help launch a campaign to improve public attitudes to kids with special educational needs (Ed Balls calls it the "My Way" campaign (!)). The irony here is that despite everything, Gordon Brown may well be on the verge of some relatively Happy Days, at least for himself. There's a big date circled in the Number 10 calendar, and it's also circled by George Osborne's closest aides. Tuesday 26 January 2010. On that day, we will get official confirmation that the recession is over.

there is still a problem that people don't want to vote for Brown, but they don't seem to want the tories. It's very interesting right now. If Brown mutters he might leave after the election, Labour could actually win. But nobody in the labour party wants to step forward and take repsonsibility for what still seels a likely kicking.

Quite the contrary, it looks remarkably stable. Still Tories at about 40, Labour in the high-20s, Lib-Dems in the high-teens. It looks a lot like what happened during September and October with Obama and McCain.
Brown could catch a break. I'm not sure how big a reaction to "the end of the recession" he's expecting, since I think people's voting attitudes only really tend to shift when they see the jobs market shift. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
Tho' the positives I reported just got nixed by a real dumb stunt by Hoon and Hewitt, not so much has-beens as never-wases, texting around in broad daylight for a challenge to Brown; exactly what labour doesn't need right now. amateurs keep to the Fen Causeway
Rally-round-the-flag time. Election's only a couple months off. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. - George Carlin
