It's probably been done already, but who's going to get the nod, and why?

If Cameron gets it, he will need Davis, Hague, Letwin and a few others to form some concrete policies, as he appears to have very few of his own.

I was originally a Davis fan but even my commie Lib Dem colleagues seem to like Cameron so maybe he's exactly what's needed.

Same here I was very much a fan of Davis, but I think that Camron will be a good opponent to Napoleon Brown.

Oh god - its today isnt it? Lunchtime they recon.... interesting. Listening to R4 last night and they suggest that Cameron has it in the bag, but I am not sure. Davis might still pull it out of the bag. Either way - reform has to happen....

Basically Betfair are saying it's a result. You can't back Cameroon anymore, no bid, and you can get at least 140-1 on Davis.

David Cameron - 0 / 1.01
David Davis - 140 / 350

imo Davis would be a better PM but Cameron is more electable, therefore I have to go with the one who can pose a challenge to the current incumbants

Davis always looks like he is coming/going to a gentlemans golf club meeting. So as an electable man [of the people] I recon Cameron.

Added: Lets hope the media fall in love with him and give good airtime, that would be a good boost for the Tory camp.

Boris would be fun as foreign secretary - until the first nuclear missiles started descending on London.

And where would they come from? I think we'd need more than a great foreign secretary to protect us if nuclear missiles were at risk of heading our way... Anyway, enough seriousness... back to imagining Boris meeting Chirac, or Bush!
