Has the phenomenal rise of the Liberal Democrat leader changed the face of British politics, or is this just a blip? The truth is we don't yet know. What we do know is that Nick Clegg has done very well at holding his own, and indeed debating in a proffessional way with Cameron and Brown, face to face. This whole debating event has given the Liberals an unusual boost in their poularity, and has at the moment given us a three horse race, if not in seats in the commons, at least in the share of the popular vote. Perhaps no longer can Labour and the Conservatives rely on the fact that they will win an election outright ever again. Maybe we do not have to be governed by a one party state any more, but by a more truly democratic and fair system.
