"Having a British cabinet minister close to the main challenger to a US President is potentially a bit embarrassing," said one.

Tony Blair last week said that he had "learned enough... not to interfere in the American presidential election".

Nevertheless, Mr Blair is bound to become embroiled in the re-election effort of his ally in the Iraq war during a planned visit to Washington later this year.

Meanwhile, Brown supporters are quietly offering help and advice to the campaign team of the man seeking to unseat Mr Bush.

3. Go down? hah! He needs to have his sorry ass dragged to the Hague
and convicted of War Crimes. He'll have plenty of company in jail with some of the scum in this administration.

2. I THINK the headline should be edited for non-Brit speak
I knew it was No. 10 Downing but a little help for others may be in order...

Brown for PM. Blair goes down with bush and the "Labour"
Govt. survives the Tories empowered by a combo of howard's leadreship and Blair's disgrace. A nice scenario to dream about.
Clarity? Well how long does it take to read that this is Gordon Brown the Bright not the Brown in KBR/ Halliburton?

6. Does not suprise me
And it's better then backing Bush, which Blair is still likely to do.
