#nickcleggsfault

The Liberal Democrats, Britain's long ignored 3rd Party, scored a coup in the first televised debate between the party leaders as Nick Clegg, their leader, outshone Labour's Gordon Brown and Tory Tony...I mean Dave - Cameron.

The result, just before the second debate, is that the Big Two have gone for the Liberal Jugular in the Trad Media, warning We The People of all sorts of Dire Consequences if we would be so dumb as to vote Liberal Democrat. Sadly for the MSM's Party Apparatchik Attack Dogs, it has been so over the top as to be laughable. So far this morning its been economic, political and social collapse, putting in a good bit of smear and innuendo to boot (see picture above), and we eagerly await global warming speeding up too.

The riposte in the New Media has been satirically brilliant - a Twitter Meme called #nickcleggsfault which blames all ills on Nick Clegg. Here are some of them:

- The BP Garage near my house running out of Double Decker bars. #nickcleggsfault

- Samantha Cameron's pregnant #nickcleggsfault

- The volcanic eruption? That was #NickCleggsFault too

- Third World Debt #nickcleggsfault

- Schrodinger's cat is dead!! apparently it's #nickcleggsfault

- The New Daleks - #nickcleggsfault

- Nick Clegg was on the grassy knoll on November 22nd 1963 #nickcleggsfault

- Nick Clegg ate my hamster #nickcleggsfault

- #nickcleggsfault disappointing hotel porn

- Have laddered my tights #nickcleggsfault

- I'm pregnant > No, I'M pregnant! #nickcleggsfault

- Oh dear the new bath end panel is chipped at the edge #nickcleggsfault

Update - quick lunchtime peek:

- San Andreas #nickcleggsfault

- Heather Mills just fell over. Apparently it was nicked legs fault. #nickcleggsfault

- Increased interest in otherwise boring election between two hopeless parties is definitely #nickcleggsfault

- If someone asked me "Why are you proud to be British?", I would point them at #nickcleggsfault.

- Ha! Yes, yes, it is all my fault! All of it! And YOU CAN NEVER STOP ME! #nickcleggsfault

- Can no longer keep track of everything that is #nickcleggsfault ... definitely #nickcleggsfault

You get the picture......... this will run and run (update - its now the leading meme on Twitter)

But what it has done is make the MSM attack dogs into a laughing stock only 2 hours into the working day, and because of the MSM news cycle times it won't be able to respond in print before tonight's second debate (Update - it finally hit the BBC blogs at 16:03... 5 hours after I wrote this in my morning coffee break). They have thus handed the #nickcleggsupporters a priceless advantage, as the ham fisted attack and rapier sharp twitter ripostes will now also be reported tomorrow irrespective of the debate outcome.

Another update - apparently some Twitter sentiment mining company has reported most twts today about Nick Clegg are negative (says the BBC). Let me bet thats becaus eof #nickcleggsfault - computers clearly don't do irony yet
