He has addopted the same slightly "talk down to them" choppy sentences split by meaningless pauses style of delivery. And he said very little beyond niceties and bland comments. So with that in mind if he manages to steal back some support from the tories - the tories might have to respond by taking up lib dem causes to take back the voters.
