The Lib Dems were victims of their own success in repairing the economy and liberating the British people. As every serious political commentator has pointed out, had The Coalition been an option on the ballot paper, it would have won a landslide victory. As it was, voters couldn't vote Lib Dem and risk letting Labour back in, doubly so when it became obvious that a Labour government would be reliant on Scottish separatists, and would probably lead to the destruction of the country. Voting Tory was simply the safest way of keeping Red Ed and Alex Salmond out of Downing Street.
