QOTD: Mark Steel on the Brown/Obama meeting

[matgb]

I always like reading Mr Steel--I don't always agree with him (y'know, trot and all) but he is damn funny. In an article about Obama's triangulation exercise:

when Obama meets Gordon Brown next week it's going to make Brown feel even worse. Maybe Obama will advise him "Gordon, you need to come up with a snappy three-word slogan that sums up your demeanour, the way I did with 'Yes we can'." And as a result the Labour Party's slogan for the next election will be "Where am I?"

Sounds about right for the moment. Or in the aftermath, regarding their MPs--"where'd they go?"...

Surely Oops A Daisy would be more appropriate?

Well, probably, but the odds of Broon admitting a mistake are quite small...

My vote would be for "What the f*ck?"

Hmm, I can feel a poll coming on...
