   Davis may win, but I think Fox is more likely.   
      
   Once Clarke (a guy from the past, and a known drug smuggler to boot) and   
   Cameron (a cokehead) are out of it, that will leave Davis and Fox. And   
   given a choice between someone who comes across as more rabid-right and   
   someone who comes across as less rabid-right, most Tory members will   
   prefer the former.
