Deeper and deeper

Is Mr McConnell an electoral asset for Labour? Or is he an electoral liability? The Scotsman reports:

"FEWER than one in three Scots think Jack McConnell is doing a good job, according to a poll published last night.
The research, by STV, found that only 31 per cent think the First Minister is performing well, 25 per cent said they thought he was doing a bad job, 24 per cent said he was doing neither a good nor a bad job, while 20 per cent did not know."

More of this sort of thing and the murmurs will start. Can Labour afford to go into next year's elections with Mr McConnell at the helm? Could we have a quick coup?
