Arianna Huffington: London Diary: Gordon Brown's Obsessions, The Loyal Opposition's Cuddly Karl Rove, Bad Germs, and the Most Unusual Royal Honeymoon Ever
I just ended three days in London that were like a cram session in British politics -- ranging from a conversation with Gordon Brown to dinner with Frances and George Osborne, the Tories' Shadow Chancellor.

Because no matter what they think of her husband, everyone in England loves Sarah. Talking about her life at Downing Street, she echoed the sentiments of President Obama when she described how great it was "living over the shop." "His aides will tell Gordon he has 20 minutes between two meetings and he will duck upstairs for bath time or to help tuck the kids into bed," she told me.
