A campaign that never promised a winner has dragged itself to a climax. David Cameron looks done for on the numbers but in the atmosphere of stalemate and bravado in these last days, that does not seem to mean he will leave No 10.
He is being urged to hole up in there, like the hero of a Hollywood siege, no matter what the voters decide. For his anxious backers, the prime minister is a man born to rule and born to stay.
Even during the campaigns final push, his sleeves rolled up for the fight, Cameron seems oddly untouched by office. Being president lent even George W Bush a kind of grave distinction. Obama grew grizzled and grey. But after five years of running a nation of 65 million, Cameron is as pink and sleek as he always was.
Only his politics have hardened. In this contest, the surface is glossy, the policies are tame and the strategies are brutal. Neither Labour nor the Conservatives have offered an earth shattering programme but Cameron has bet the future of the United Kingdom to win a second victory.
