Sad, he's head and shoulders above any other politcian we have in Scotland or at UK level.

Ironically, polls have consistently shown a no-vote but a subsequent SNP win at Holyrood. His approval rating is way higher than any other party leader.

All the best Eck.

SNP need to push on in future and capitalise on the dimise of Labour in working class areas. This means it needs to focus on the west coast vote and continue its momentum in places like Glasgow and Inverclyde.

A weegie at the helm would help this.

Had to go, the referndum failure would've hung around his neck for the rest of the Holyrood term, it's hard to see him geting re-elected in 2016 with that failure there, that ambition thwarted. Sturgeon will get the job and I doubt anyone will run against her as anything other than a formality to process.

Also means that sturgeon is not bound by Salmond's promise to not hold another referendum.

Sturgeon, Lamont and Davidson, there's a tryptich for you.
