    "please go" epetition response

    Just in case people think we in the US have conflicts over office holders, read the following - which includes the official response to a (basically) "get lost!" message:

    Ya just can't please everybody, can you?

    I don't think that Brown really has the balls to go for a stunt like that. He lacks the presentation skills. Apparently he's a better politician than Cameron or Blair but it just doesn't come through on telly. This petition is just a sign of the times. Blair bailed and left brown in the metaphorical. I don't think he necessarily has done a bad job he just doesn't present what he's done very well. And his spin doctors aren't as good as Blair or Cameron. I have a lot of sympathy for Brown. He's got the job he's always wanted and now he looks like he hates it.
