Where was Moses when the lights went out?

So where has this election left us? It's said that the electorate get the government they deserve, and in this case it would seem the non-government they deserve. It will be interesting, if a little depressing, to watch the twisting and squirming as the parties seek to position themselves for what they see a their best advantage, whilst always maintaining that they are acting in the "national interest". For what it's worth, my money would be on some sort of "confidence and supply" deal whereby the LibDems agree for a certain specific period (say two years), not to vote to bring down a minority Tory government (by supporting legislation they agree with, and abstaining when they don't). But it's a real dog's breakfast.
