Have just spotted this interesting quote
"Ming can breath a sigh of relief. Its not just the Lib Dem conference delegates and blogosphere which have lauded his speech - even the media, which has delighted in reporting a conference taking place in an alternative parallel universe all week, has been forced to admit his speech was pretty damn good" - Stephen Tall Lib Dem Voice 20th Sep
Why is it interesting? Well just look at the cartoons from the four "quality" papers of the UK media this morning.
Guardian
Daily Telegraph
The Times
Independent
I see what Stephen means. The media were clearly overwhelmed with repsect and admiration for Ming Campbell as a result of his stormingly good speech!

I'd put a lot of money on those cartoons being drawn up and given the green light before Ming's speech was actually made. It might be as simple as that.
Was it admiration, or shock that he got it right?
When he dared to criticise the press, he was never going to get the positive write up that he speech deserved.
