"Thank you for the ... statistics".

Nice one ITV Wales. Do I wish the poll had been ours? Yes of course I do. But until people far more important than I am agree that polling in Wales isn't only justified but part of the service we are here to give the public, it won't happen. So keep hassling.

Had Rhodri Morgan already seen the predicted 25 seats when he said he'd retire if Labour did really badly? Would he have said it at all unless he feels in his gut that they won't do really badly?

Rhodri M talks of sensing the mood by the number of people who cross the road to avoid him. Is it happening this time round? No - says the man himself. Mind you one of his biggest fans tells me that out in Blaenau Gwent last year there were only two responses to the boss on the doorstep. It was either "Come here love, the First Minister's come to see us" or "Rhodri, good to see you!".

They still lost and lost badly.

Up in Scotland, where Jack McConnell really does know what meltdown in the polls looks like, how do they view our man?

This is George Kerevan in The Scotsman yesterday

"Rhodri Morgan is a charismatic figure ... He is fun at a time when Scottish politics has become so very strait-laced ... His latest bon mot was to suggest that global warming would do wonders for Welsh tourism. But wily Mr Morgan is teasing us. His man-of-the-people act hides the fact that he has earned degrees from both Oxford and Harvard .... I strongly suspect Rhodri Morgan will still be in power after 3 May."

One man's clown prince of Wales ...
