I'm actually surprised Johnson is blowing his load in a race now
I've always imagined that he wants to have held the job title, rather than actually wanting to do the job. Name on the trophy, stick it out for a respectable length of time, job done.
If he misses out this time, the next time will be the third time running he'll have had a go. By that point, and in a very changed landscape, he could start to look old.

there is just no way the winner of this race, whichever tosser it is, is going to govern long time.
Do you not think?
Hopefully you're right, but I think BJ will walk any election against JC.

Maybe I'm being a bit blasé but I'm watching this whole leadership race with a kind of detached amusement, esp. given what that YouGov poll says ... there is just no way the winner of this race, whichever tosser it is, is going to govern long time.
I'm actually surprised Johnson is blowing his load in a race now, given how precarious his position will be as leader - he could quite easily be PM for less time than May or Brown.
I think I said this earlier, but I believe that Johnson is campaigning to win this contest, I think that Stewart is campaigning to win the next one.
