It’s a shame that it took ninety minutes of airtime to let Clegg and the Lib Dems into the mindset of the Great British public but now that it’s happened I regret not placing that bet sooner. I mean for someone who’s been following the Lib Dems closely over the past few weeks, nothing that Clegg said was new or previously unknown but it didn’t need to be, tonight was purely about the moment in the spotlight.

I know the chances of the Lib Dems actually making it individually into power are slim but if you’re fed up with Labour and you used to vote Labour, who are you going to go for? Changing political stance rarely makes sense so the logical switch is to the newly invigorated Liberal Democrats.

In case you haven’t noticed those debates last night confirmed my instincts and pushed me fully to the yellow side of politics.

Haven’t done of one these in a while and just discovered the interesting world of Dumbfoundead. I’m not sure if this one is a keeper as my first impressions of his album weren’t so great but the track above and I Need a Dollar are top draw if you ask me. Worth a listen.

I still don’t actually know why I’m doing this one a day challenge, that I’ve technically failed due to backtracking. I’m hoping to keep it up though because although I haven’t posted each and every day, I will have attributed one for every day and hope to steer this back on track pretty soon.

The main problem with One a Day, and I’m sure most people will agree, is that you’re either not busy resulting in a lacklustre post about nothing in particular or you’re too busy to make a post. The latter applies to this one, although you could probably argue a case for both.

Probably another short one today as day will be a busy day, being my 21st birthday and all. Actually wait that was a lie, it is my birthday, but I probably won’t be that busy.

Seeing as I don’t drink, my birthday isn’t an excuse to get “wasted”, so the older I’ve gotten, the less I’ve celebrated it. The same will be true of today, I’ll probably just do what I normally do, buy stuff I don’t really need.

Trying not to sound like an old man – I know I’m not, don’t worry – but birthday’s don’t seem that important after you turn 18, after all once you’re 18 you can essentially do anything. But hey, let’s not turn this into a grumpy post because I’m not particularly grumpy or anything, just a little boring.

Anyway, this post has descended into weird territory. I’m off for cake.

I’m not going to claim to know everything about politics because, quite frankly, I don’t. However, there’s something about the Election that’s sparked up an interest. It’s left me reading newspapers, watching the news and occasionally refreshing BBC’s excellent online coverage.

As someone who’s never voted before, I’m enjoying the whole floating around between parties while discovering their policies. Luckily thanks to the internet – you might have heard of it – I can take a couple of quizzes or browse through their websites to quickly find someone suitable to vote for.

With that said I’m still in two minds. I’ve always been told to vote Labour but a few things, like war and the economy, they’ve gotten wrong, while the Lib Dem views on those areas kind of line up with mine. However, then I’ve got to consider would a Lib Dem vote be a wasted one but I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking that. Maybe if all those floating Labour votes just bit the bullet and voted Lib Dem, we would have a surprise result on our hands. But maybe this is just me rooting for the underdog again.

I’ll probably make a clearer and more coherent post come Thursday. Hopefully with some actual thought and decision behind it.
