When I first read the subject line, I figured it was talking about B Brian Blair. Didn't he win some small office like "county commissioner" in Florida? Or am I thinking about some other 1980s AWA/WWF jobber?

Oddly enough - and ViNNY or NiGHTS (hm....) can correct me on this - I believe Blair's Labour Party is actually considered to be on the *liberal* end of British politics. Whether that is a function of different definitions of 'liberal,' or just evidence that you don't have to be a conservative dunce attempting to perpetuate a defacto theocracy to conduct an unjustified war based on lies and poor judgement, I can't say.

Well, sure. However, unlike in Europe, it only matters when the TV networks are putting up electoral maps. Nobody overhere says "I must wear a blue t-shirt when I go to the polls!!!" We save that sort of loyalty for sports teams.
