if you had to pick a winner out of that bunch it would be Cruddas - and the poll on the site reflects that (nearly 50% of the vote) - but if I was a Labour machine planner I would go for Harman: it is now common knowledge that it is the female vote that wins elections, and I think Brown & HArman present a nicer image than any other combo.
err... realtively speaking.
Could this bode well for the happy couple?:

The bookies disagree - their order goes:
1 Hilary Benn 6/4
2 Alan Johnson 2/1
3 Harriet Harman 6/1
4 Hazel Blears 6/1
5 John Cruddas 10/1
6 Peter Hain 12/1
Hilary Benn's a weird one - can't get my head round him at all. Bookies seem convinced its his for the taking.
6 to 1 on Harman could be worth a flutter...
