David Cameron, a 39-year-old MP, was yesterday elected leader of the British Conservative Party, beating David Davis, who was running on a more conservative platform. Cameron's campaign was about modernizing the UK Tories -- about bringing in new people into the party (such as more women and minorities) and innovative policies on such topics as the environment. Some conservatives, like Paul Tuns, don't think much of the man. I haven't followed the race closely but am willing to give Cameron a chance. His first speech was pretty impressive. Let's see how he does.
