UK General Election 2010 - The first debate

I watched the historical General Election debate by the three party leaders, Gordon Brown (Primeminister), David Cameron (Cons) and Nick Clegg (Lib Dems). After watching the American debates beween Barack Obama and watshisname, which were really stage managed, I was expecting the UK debate to be a little insipid. However, I was quite pleasently surprised. Gordon Brown - the bruiser that he is came across as a man of substance, well able to take on the other two slick pretty boys, both in debate and at the election box.I thought that Gordon Brown did really well.
