The Lib Dem "It's a two horse race" argument gets sillier and sillier. Yellow Peril notes that the current Betfair odds tell a different story:The "bookies" at Betfair are indeed saying it's a two horse race in Bromley - punters on the site are currently offering shorter (2/1) odds on Labour than on the Lib Dems (3/1). So it looks like "Ming Campbell's candidate can't win here".
It's a straight choice.
It's a two horse race.
Our bar chart proves it.

Thanks for completely missing the whole point of the story. Ultimately the Lib Dems will seize on whatever set of figures they can hold up to say "only our candidate can beat the [incumbants]" regardless of how they twist the figures.
If the situation were reversed the Lib Dems would still be using the best set of figures for them to back up the usual:
"It's a straight choice." (I bet Simon Hughes likes that one!)
"It's a two horse race."
So how do you know that it is the U.S.’s Democrat party that is the oldest political party in the world? The U.S.’s Republican party calls them selves the G.O.P.” The Grand Old Party “
