DAVID Cameron began his speech yesterday by reminding the Conservative conference that two years ago he had stood in the same hall and made the case for being leader of his party. Today, he said, I want to make the case for being leader of the country. It was a nice line but a dangerous one because it overlooked the fact that poll after poll in the last three months has shown that Mr Cameron lags far behind Gordon Brown in the public's estimation of what makes a party or a national leader. Speeches are not everything, even if they are impressively delivered for an hour without text or autocue, as Mr Cameron's was.
