The election of David Cameron is a quintessentially Tory act. The Tories will _never_ adopt any new ideas on their own, if they can at all avoid it. Thus Labour or the Lib-Dems will have to become rabid free-marketeers first -- _after_ which the Tories might just follow, timidly & hesitantly. The Tory rank-and-file are rapidly aging. Who knows, it may yet be possible to replace a moribund Tory party with a vibrant young Whig party...reversing what happened in the 19th century.
