   Yup.  Same here.  It's like that scene in 'Broadcast News'   
   where Holly Hunter is asked sarcastically by her chauvinist   
   boss if it isn't "great being right all the time" - to which   
   she replies, "Oh no, it's just awful...it's just *awful*."

   Let's see - do you mean the fact that the majority of people   
   vote Labour+LibDem and get Tory as a result?  Or do you mean   
   BrokesIt?  Don't worry, maybe you'll get to see Kiwexit if   
   you just hang about there long enough.
