I'm not entirely sure why some people think he's the answer for Labour. Surely you end up with

a) someone who'd be seen as a poor man's David Cameron who's already seen as a poor man's Tony Blair

b) someone who's perceived as too involved with the last 12 years of Labour government to be seen as offering an alterantive direction.

c) three parties with three identikit leaders, thus further restricting political choice.

Even if Brown went he's not gonna turn things round is he?
