Election odds: A focus on Boris Johnson

Lets cut right to the chase: is Boris a bumbling buffoon or political giant?

Maybe Boris should have the following clip on the front page of his campaign's website. After all, everyone likes a good hard tackle - Martin Taylor, Danny Mills and Ben Thatcher eat your hearts out...
