The Conservatives should triumph under a young leader, David Cameron, who has hauled them back onto the middle ground of politics where elections are usually won. Labour, under Brown, is unpopular, with the economy in deep trouble and a general sense that the party has run out of ideas. The Liberal Democrats under Nick Clegg have surged remarkably, and may even push ahead of Labour in the popular vote.  But the structure of the British election is such that a victory for them is almost a statistical impossibility.
保守党人很可能在大卫·卡梅隆这个年轻领袖的领导下夺得胜利，因为卡梅隆令全党的政治立场重新回归到了中间路线，而走这个路线的政党常常能赢得竞选胜利。而布郎率领的工党则不受欢迎，因为经济深陷泥沼且人们普遍认为该党已经黔驴技穷了。而尼克·克列格率领的自由民主党则声势浩大，甚至有可能在投票中压倒工党。然而英国的选举体制却注定了他们的大选获胜几率几乎只有统计学上的可能性。
