I've heard on good authority that some of the summer briefing was coming form highups in the Huhne camp, but then I know some of it was coming from the Clegg camp, so there are idiots on both sides.
Absolutely. On balance, it does feel like there were a few more vocal Huhne fans who wouldn't be happy with Clegg than there were the other way round - but given that Clegg was the favourite to win, it's likely that the Clegg fans who wouldn't be happy with Huhne didn't feel the need to grumble quite so much in public to whip up support.
