Nigel Farage has won 2/2 debates against Nick Clegg, am I shocked? No.
The reason I am not shocked is because, yes I believe Farage is a loon, with only one real matter on his mind, but he sticks to what he believes in.
Clegg, on the other hand, is purely a crowd pleaser. Right now he wants to please Labour, just in case at the next general election there's another hung parliament in Labour's favour, and they will be once again called upon to form another coalition government.
He reminds of the kid at school who will do ANYTHING to get in with the 'popular' crowd. The annoying hang-on who just always seems to be there.
During his first debate, when Nick Ferrari pulled out the 2008 Lib Dem leaflet saying they'd give us a referendum on Europe, he said six damaging words 'If you read the small print'.
He made himself sound like a used car salesman. For someone who is currently our Deputy Prime Minister, it was an embarrassing listen.
I won't vote UKIP, and I won't vote Lib Dem, so I really wasn't bothered about who won, or what they had to say, but in reality Nick should have trounced Farage.
Instead Nigel Farage connected more with the listening audience than that of a man who is the leader of the third largest political party in Britain.
Either the Lib Dems need an in out referendum on their leader, or Nick shows them what he's made of.
