End the Labour Madness - Alan Johnson, Former Home Secretary

Guardian: Reports " Labour must 'end the madness' over Jeremy Corbyn, says Alan Johnson..Former home secretary says party should back Yvette Cooper because she can unite the party to win power  "

Lets Get Real:

The problem with Yvetter Cooper is that she is married to Ed Balls, the once right hand man for Gordon Brown, the Blair or virus section of the party might think they have gone down the Gordon Brown road with Ed Miliband and do not want to lose in 2020.   But on the other hand it would allow time for David Miliband to come back after a few years and take the Party in to the 2020 election, as a campaigner Ms Cooper does not impress and is too rigid in the House of Commons.  At least Ms Cooper is not CORBYN, and it would be up to her to show that Ed Balls is not pulling the strings from behiond the curtain or their front door.   If only Mr Johnson had wanted to be leader, he would have saved the Party a lot of stress over the last few weeks. 

Biden vs. Clinton - Election 2016

BBC News: Reports on the moves by the Clinton Camp ahead of a possible Biden run, the article notes the following, "  a forthcoming $2 million (£1.28 million) television advertising buy in the early voting states of Iowa and New Hampshire, featuring two spots touting their candidate's personal story. "

Lets Get Real:

The Clintons are not taking prisoners this time, they are in the 2016 election to win, and in that process they will roll over and will not forgive any blocks on the road.   As a sitting Vice President, Joe Biden should have been a front runner, but he has left it to late, the Clintons have the money tied up and most of the Democratic establishment.  Also a move by Biden would place POTUS in a bad position, he would have to make sure that any policy news does not hurt his VP.  If Biden does not run then POTUS can push for action via executive action and hope it sticks after 2016.   Also lets be honest here, both Hillary and Joe are not young any more, does the VP really want to spend a year on the campaign trail, it would be wiser for the VP to be made a Ambassador to Europe in a Clinton victory.    The running for Presidency is a young man,woman's game these days. 

The Burnham Family vs. Corbyn - Labour Leadership Contest

Telegraph: Reports on the views of the mother and father of Any Burnham, the article notes the following, " Mr Burnham's 75-year-old mother, Eileen, and father Roy, 74, both attacked Mr Corbyn over his plans to move Labour further to the left. "

Lets Get Real:

The important month is August, the Country on the whole goes on holiday that month, even Westminister, so who ever really wants the job has to campaign when everyone else has turned off and looking for a good time at the beach.   This is the time for Liz Kendall to get her high heels and to start to hit the opposition, being Labour Leader is a thankless job at the best of times, and it is not the best of times, thus the candidates will have to make their presence felt, do interviews, go around the Country, make sure your on the social media, and if ALL else fails, PRAY, can not do any harm. 

Kinnock on Corbyn Surge - Labour Party Leadership Contest

Daily Mail: Report " Jeremy Corbyn is backed by 'malign Trots' warns ex-Labour leader Neil Kinnock as he urges members to back Andy Burnham  "

Lets Get Real:

Ever once in a blue moon Kinnock gets it right, this was the former leader who stated at the election of Ed Miliband that they had gotten their Party back, meaning back from New Labour, the Party structure that won three elections for Labour.   Mr Kinnock calls for the election of Any Burnham, this would be a mistake, Mr Burnham the former Health Secretary would be a northern Ed Miliband, it would not end well, the only real candidate is Liz Kendall, she comes from the Blair wing of the Labour Party, or the virus Part if you take in the views from the Trade Unions.  Time for Labour voters to think with their heads and vote Kendall. 

Split in Labour Shadow Front Bench - Labour Leadership

BBC News - Politics: Reports " Shadow Chancellor Chris Leslie has said he would not serve under Jeremy Corbyn if he becomes Labour leader. "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour Party is in a STATE of civil war, the surprising surge of Jeremy Corbyn has taken the New Labour element of Labour by shock, the Labour Establishment thought a centre left candidate would win as in the shape of Andy Burnham, but the Burnham campaign has never really got off the ground, also Mr Burnham is a Northern Ed Miliband, he was the darling of the left before Corbyn came along his argument for a far left Labour Party.   This blog thinks it will be a close race, but Labour will go for the safe choice of Burnham, better a candidate who might be a future PM than a candidate who would return Labour back to the days of Michael Foot. 

Is New Labour a political virus - Labour Leadership Contest

BBC News: Reports that the CWU is supporting Jeremy Corbyn, the leader of the Union stated the following on New Labour " The union's general secretary Dave Ward said Mr Corbyn was the "antidote" to the "virus within the Labour Party". "

Lets Get Real:

Thus New Labour that got Labour elected three times in a general election is now seen as a virus by a trade union, in the past the left was seen as a threat to the stability of the Labour Party.   Those that want abc ( Any but Corbin ) have to find a unity candidate that the centre and the right can support.  If you are a Conservative you want Corbyn to WIN, then it assures that Labour will be in civil war and the 2020 election is in the bag, but if you think a Opposition Party is good then you want a leader that can be seen as a PM in the future.  It is time for Labour to grow up and fast.  

Corbyn ALL the WAY - Labour Leadership

The Daily Mail: Reports on private poll seen by the Daily Mirror, the article notes the following, " Mr Corbyn 42%, Yvette Cooper 22.6%, Mr Burnham 20% & Liz Kendall 14%...It indicates that, once second preferences are taken into account, the socialist will garner 51 per cent with Miss Cooper on 49 per cent.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the best news this blogger has heard all day, the thought of Jeremy Corbyn makes this Conservative blogger smile.   The Labour Party would be OUT of power for generations if it does down this road.   Lets help them, all Conservatives should join the Labour Party and VOTE CORBYN, we could cancel the 2020 election and just take a 100 seats from the Labour Party.  It is a good time to be a Conservative.
