The Jock vote

[VNA]

I mean, for Salmond, its all about him, and what he can do to further himself.

I don't think so.  I don't buy into that at all.    No he's not a Tommy Sheridan or a George Galloway, he's not some egotistical maniac.  Nor is he elitist or seek the limelight.  He's not interested in celebrity, just doing his job.

You know the whole might of the UK media have been trying to shoot this fox for over two decades now.  That's two decades of full on media abuse, two decades of scratching around try to destroy one man.  You don't survive that unless you have some real integrity. 

My prediction would be post YES vote, Wee Eck will lead the negotiations.  He'll then stand down.  Wee Nikki will then lead the SNP.

Of course the SNP will have a heck of a job holding itself together post YES.  Many a matter of conscience has been put aside, many a compromise, in order to move forward together and deliver this referendum.

The kind of people that are in the SNP, they do have discipline, incredible discipline, but such matters of conscience will only lie low for so long.
