I did put this in as a little joke as the UT has been plastered with US electioneering for the last year, and continues to be.

Mid-term by-elections are invariably a thorn in the flesh of the government and this one had just suffered a humiliating defeat in Glasgow East, supposedly one of the safest Labour seats in Britain. Labour's majority in Glenrothes was smaller, as was the swing required for the SNP to take it and privately many in the Labour camp had already written it off. Commentators spoke of a shoo-in for the SNP and there was talk of it spelling the demise of Gordon Brown's leadership.
