re: #44 Dr Lizardo

Yep, this is certainly one of those momentous events, that’s for sure. I can’t predict which way the vote will go, but I think it’s safe to say that if the Scots vote “yes” for independence, there will be blood much butthurt in the London-based media tomorrow.

And I think there’s a chance PM Cameron could be under very intense pressure to step down under that scenario.

Tomorrow the Rightwingers here will of course blame the whole thing on Obama whichever way the vote goes, more so if the vote is yes though. They are already complaining about him not trying to “intervene” more forcefully.

I guess they are too stupid to realize how counterproductive it would have been for us to try to tell the Scots what to do. Had one guy tell me that Bush would have gone over there to talk to them himself. My response was “only if he had wanted to ensure a massive surge in the number of yes votes.” :D
