The clear message from the BBC this morning is that the Lib Dems had a really bad night in the election and this is because they are "the whipping boys" or "the human shield" for the Tories. Apparently it is personally bad for Nick Clegg. The result has come about, so we are supposed to believe, because Lib Dem supporters are angry about the Coagulation and the decisions it has made.
Can I offer an alternate solution?
All of those tactical voters, the Anyone But Conservatives, are now voting Labour instead of Lib Dem.

Some people never learn...
Apart from those voting SNP rather than Scots Labour, they have finally learned.
Well, in Mid Sussex there seemed to be more of an "anyone but Lib Dem" vote, as we gained 15 seats getting 45 out of 53 seats. Labour still have the one they had in 2007 and the Lib Dems now have 8!
bit of a kicking their!
When approached and given the suggestion that they should try less negative campaigning they said that is how you do opposition politics. Apparently they do not recognise the chap sat next to David Cameron at PMQ's (On the other side of George Osbourne)
Bugger, I meant there!
They might well call a snap election - the Tories are ahead.
