Cameron goes all Neil Kinnock's "We're alright!"

Did anyone watch Cameron's speech this morning? He jumped on the stage like a jack-in-the-box and this happened: http://order-order.com/2015/04/27/the-passion-of-dave-that-pumps-me-up/#_@/ODOPlgzQ3JSMqQ

:D:D:D

He said several times how "pumped" he was. Shades of Neil Kinnock's "We're alright!" no?

I really don't want to think about Cameron being "pumped up" anyway. Seems he's trying a bit too hard after accusations of looking like he'd given up and the campaign lacking passion. ;)

    Where has this Cameron been hiding the last few weeks? he's suddenly raised his game in the final stretch. Fair dues.

    Yesterday he said Labour can take their arguments and "shove them where the sun don't shine!" Just how many Cameron's is there? Who is he really and what does he believe in? He really is more of a PR man than PM.

    He's a man of a 1000 masks/faces.

    I have watched him on TV every day as he has been out campaigning. He has travelled the length and breadth of the country campaigning. I have also read about his daily campaigning in the newspapers. You must try to keep abreast of what is happening.

    I think he realises he needs one big massive push as he's still within reach of having the numbers to govern after the election, he definitely needs a good performance on Question time Thursday.

    Not really, Neil Kinnock was revelling in certain victory and got royally punished for it and his opponent managed to get more votes than any other post war PM.

    Very strange indeed.
    A Daily Politics guest is wondering which is the real David Cameron.
    I am wondering how he is going to cope with the real pressure.....after the Election.

    Did Cameron really use language like that? It's very uncultured.

    He used to be a PR for the Conservative party. I suppose that's where he gets his experience from.

    Yeah he did. I was surprised too, it's more like something Boris would say.

    All fired up like that- sounds like a football supporter getting behind his team (although football supporters normally remember who their team is) .

    Perhaps he's been sniffing Justine Miliband's toilet?

    Ah I see the cyberleft are out in force - just as it was before the last election. It's really rather quaint.:D

    From Joey Jones of Sky " I'm not sure of the Cameron passion strategy thus far . In small clips (how most people consume it ) , risks looking purple and shouty "

    No doubt this is in response to the criticism that his heart didn't seem to be in it.

    Shows that public schooling went to waste if they end up talking like that - crude, rude and uncivilised. Lol

    Pumped sounds like he means drugged up.

    Needless condescension aside, I think most would agree that just because you're out campaigning doesn't automatically mean you're doing a convincing job when you're out campaigning.

    There is a happy medium between that and being the political equivalent of Mr Motivator, though.
