Mark Pack reports the success of The Facebook group "We got Rage Against the Machine to #1, we can get the Lib Dems into office!" It is now bigger than the Conservative and Labour Facebook pages combined and, remarkably, bigger than the Liberal Democrats' paid-up membership.

Following Nick's triumph in first leaders' election, the Conservatives are threatening greater scrutiny of Liberal Democrat policies. (There are even unconfirmed reports that David Cameron may read our manifesto before the second debate.) Bring it on! says Liberal Endevour.

Giles Wilkes (aka The Freethinking Economist) has a piece on Comment is Free dissecting the anger of the Conservative Party as the voters refuse to share its sense of entitlement and opt for the Liberal Democrats instead.

Jonathan Fryer detects the rebirth of Orpington Man.

At the end of a remarkable week, Skipper asks if the Liberal Democrats can maintain their momentum.
