He's taking hits but he's done that before and survived intact. he's not an AD&D character - its not like he has number of political hitpoints taken off for each scandal. Given time each scandal just sinks beneath the waves of spin and counter-spin. Its all very demoralising.

I disagree - it's taking it's toll. I don't believe he will lead the Labour Party into the next election.

That may be the case but I don't think it will be because of the public opinion of him that he'll go - he'll go because Brown will force him out. And even then, I strongly doubt good old Gordon would have behaved any differently in any of the situations Blair has faced. He's implicated just as much in most of them anyway.
