"The slow, sad political extinction of Tony Blair"?

I don't know, it's not really all that sad that his majority has been cut from 167 down to around 70. I was hoping that more voters would turn to the Liberal Democrats who ran on an anti-war campaign but they still picked up 59 seats which is an improvement. The Tories really had no valid argument against Blair because it's not like they were against the invasion of Iraq. OK, they could criticize Blair for getting caught in a web of lies about the war but they were even more enthusiastic about it then Labour.
