  Its true Ed Miliband is a mixed blessing at PMQ. Some weeks he seems to do well, but often flatters to deceive. Its a political tango for Ed..three steps forward and two back. He most definitely did not have a good PMQ last wednesday, which was a pity just as we all went into Christmas recess. Cameron's jokes though are very much aimed at the guffaw element in his party..are often personal with reference to other family Miliband members, and generate cheap guffaws, but if Miliband responded with a personal slurr against Cameron family members I wonder how it would go down. But as we stand, Cameron gets the loudest cheers.
  
  However this doesnt always play well though out in the country. You might remember Cameron's two blunders recently..the infamous " calm down dear!" and the "frustrated" Nadine Dorries one. This produced loud guffaws of the back slapping variety in The House and one would be forgiven for thinking Cameron was winning.
  
  But... on the contrary. Out in the country people were disgusted by and large. So much so that Cameron's media monitors advised him to apologise as he was haemorraging voters. While his sometimes juvenile retorts are greeted by loud guffaws from his own party in the House..they will basically cheer at anything right or wrong...the jury is still out on whether its playing well out in the rest of the country.
  
  It may be enjoyed by the already converted, but its the neutrals that hold sway in an election, the floaters. That section of the community up for grabs.
  How is it all playing with them?
  
  Many a good performer in the House couldnt win an election to save their lives.
