Is David Cameron about to become the British Al Gore?

Remember the outcry when Al Gore was cheated of the US Presidency in 2000 by Bush? Remember how, throughout Bush's terrible presidency, Gore was presented as the innocent victim of an act of political theft? Well, if Labour and the Liberal Democrats do a deal and force yet another unelected Prime Minister on the country, then David Cameron will become the British equivalent of Al Gore.

Think about it. Cameron won the most votes in the election of any party, and it is only a quirk of the electoral system that prevents him from being named as Prime Minister - just as the electoral college system prevented President Gore in 2000. Sure, had the recount not been stopped, then Gore might have won - but what stopped the recount? A combination of politicians hostile to the election's biggest vote-winner making deals behind closed doors - just as Labour and the Liberal Democrats are doing at the moment. If Cameron is prevented from forming a government, he and his supporters will be an excellent and credible position to play the martyr. And if a deal is struck between the Liberal Democrats and Labour, then the ensuing government will be forever compromised, just as the first Bush administration was. The Lib-Lab coalition will be handing both the opposition and democrats throughout the country a massive stick with which to whack them.
