Labour Victory in the UK
This is clearly good news for President Bush, as Blair has been a major ally in the war against terror and the war in Iraq. But it's also a victory for Bill Clinton. He endorsed Blair, and even made a virtual in person endorsement via satellite at a Labour rally.
With a smaller majority, Blair's power is diminished, but the important fact is that he and his party have been re-elected. As was Bush, as was Howard in Australia. You know that Bush was very happy to hear of the result.

I cannot disagree too strongly, as I think most British people do have a problem with the war and many think that Blair lied ( which I think is untrue, but it is a common opinion ).
And the Conservatives are weak, for sure.
And many absolutely do think that the outcome will be as you say --Brown to take power soon. I have friends in London, and I have heard this belief.
I do support the war, and I think Blair is a good man, but I understand that everyone does not agree.
Oh, we certainly agree that " Scent of a Woman " is a wonderful movie. Have seen it three times, will see it again.
Cheers,
