I only ask after a weekend which has been dominated by phrases such as " well hung... messily hung... swinging ". All of which of course, refer to the increasing speculation that there will be a hung parliament which is arousing constitutional experts to a state rarely seen or heard. Meanwhile the playground bullies of the political press have failed to goad Nick Clegg into declaring for either Tories or Labour . 'Tis the eternal question that faces Lib Dem leaders " Who do you prefer? Who will you work with?" and much time is spent in Lib Dem leader land trying to find elegant ways of refusing to answer the one question that voters are perfectly entitled to ask, particularly if they're about to switch allegiance. However, Nick's sound bite assertion that he was no kingmaker but the 45 million voters of Britain are is one that should be relayed to everyone who's got the chance to vote in the next few weeks.
I'm not a gambling woman although for a nano second on Saturday I contemplated putting a fiver on West Ham to beat Chelsea on 14 to 1 odds, but if the parties are as close as the polls suggest then all the more reason to get out and vote when it really could make a difference. Even if we do end up with something messily hung that only HM The Queen can sort out.
