I agree, the problem David Cameron has is that he would like I think to be seen as a consensus politician and has tried to present that at the election, everyone who meets him says he is a friendly and approachable guy.

He not only got the hard task of leading a Govt in a fragile economical state, he also had World events and problems arising from the Eurozone to face that could threaten how he proceeded.
He then has the far right of his party pressing for all sorts of harder policies as opposed to his more moderate ideas as to policies.
As well as all that he has to look constantly over his shoulder at what the Lib Dems are doing and saying, knowing they can scupper any plans he brings forward.

Rather then creating a strong Govt, this Coalition has been a weak Govt, with far too many factions pulling this way and then the other.
I think it's a pity he didn't get the chance to, on the Letterman show, get his points across better as to things he has done and had to do.

For Labour, the Coalition is a gift beyond belief, they are in effect the only opposition UK party there has been to the policies put forward.
My guess is they will win with a overall majority of at least 30 whenever the election comes.

David Cameron has had a baptism of fire as to being PM, it is never an easy job nor should it be but I cannot see any way back for him from the problems this Govt has now.
2013 and 2014 are going to be riddled with the effects of polices that are going to hit the most vulnerable far more,the NHS is heading for really big problems.
He will have nothing to give away at the next election as his reduction of the deficit will be nowhere near ,( if it even gets anywhere near half), of what he made his target as to it to be.

Politics is a cruel and lonely place at times.
