Has ITV already made Cameron Prime Minister?
I know the talk about the debate last night is how good Nick Clegg did, to me that' irelevent and his party will do no better than they ever have.
What interested me is the way ITV set up the debate and effects that has on the unconscious.
For some reason David Cameron got the middle stand in the debate, which automatically meant he looked the man in charge, with the two rivals either side.
Bizarely, when they introduced themselves, he went last, first Clegg, then Brown :confused: then finally David Cameron.
Forget about what the polls said about Nick Clegg's performance, the most significant factor in the debate was them putting David Cameron centre stage so that he appeared to be in charge.
If they do that on the other two debates Cameron will win the election comfortably because they are unconsciously projecting that Cameron is in charge.
If I was Gordon Brown, not in a million years would I have agreed to stand to the right of David Cameron, that's the place for the right hand man, the number 2!
I thought it was an amazing blunder but suprisingly it's not been picked up on by anyone else.
I have read about voting behaviour in the past and the proven links in the US between electorate voting behaviour and what news channel they watch. Unconciously, the biggest influences and predictors of voting behaviour can be what station a voter watches, and how the primary newscaster's body language when talking about each candidate can influence the vote to a statistically significant effect.
If Gordon Brown gets to speak second and stands to the right of Cameron every time for these debates, plainly and simply he's fucked.

They will almost certainly chnage the order of everything for the next two debates. I.e who stands where, who goes 1st etc

Yeah, if they don't it will be catstrophic for the Labour Vote.
Actually if the debates spark a lot of viewers, whoever gets the middle slot in the final debate may have an advantage over the others.
If they do switch, Brown will want to be in the middle for the final debate, that might well be significant.
If I was Labour though I'd demand my PM in the middle for every debate!

He should also demand that they address him as 'Prime Minister' although technically he isn't anymore.

Don't matter who is PM, they are just a face for the cunts that actually control shit around here.

Yeah they will change it around. But the next debate is on Sky then the final one is BBC. So its probably going to be best to be strongest on the last one.
