I could be truthful and blame my short attention span. Alternatively, I could point to me being so accustomed to coalition governments where obtaining 40/50 seats for a single party is a major, major victory, that the simple fact that the GL won an overall majority left me awestruck. Oh, and I was conditioned by all the opinion polls to expect a rather mediocre performance by the GL, so that added to the sheen of their victory.
Yes, I was awestruck in many ways, it had nothing to do whatsoever with a short attention span.
For most of the period of my life in which I have been poltically aware, I've known the ConDem coalition.
I know how you feel
