A half-arsed prediction

since every other pundit got it spectacularly wrong already and I'm unlikely to be any wronger: Clegg realises his own party won't wear a coalition with the Tories, so he, Cable and Huhne will defect to Cameron's mob along with just enough of the other Orange Book lunatics to provide a majority. They may succeed in getting ID cards dropped but electoral reform will not happen, and the fallout will send the Lib Dems back into the oblivion they've mostly enjoyed since the foundation of the Labour Party. And everyone will have learned a valuable lesson about ruthlessly ambitious upper-class careerists pretending to be progressive.
