Exhaustion hits the Tory Battle bus.

According to Andrew Neil he was told by a Tory donor, "Tory
campaign useless. Cameron's heart not in it. Not looking good". This was
confirmed moments later by Tory commentator Tim Montgomerie who said that,
“Cameron has wanted out for a while. He has just wanted to go out on some sort
of high and hasn't been able to find that high.”
UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said: “Reports that senior Tory donors are
suggesting that the Conservative Party campaign is in disarray are of no
surprise to me.
"Mr Cameron has failed to capture the imagination of the electorate with
his party’s empty promises, and he has focused almost entirely on negative,
American-style campaigning.
"In fact, on the back of Mr Cameron begging for UKIP voters to vote for
his party, what we are seeing is quite the opposite. Voters appear to be
increasingly impressed with UKIP's costed manifesto, including independently
audited proposals on controlling immigration, increased funding for our NHS, and
bringing forward a free and fair referendum on European Union
membership.
"As this election campaign draws to a close, I would be unsurprised to
see UKIP's vote share increase, and I am increasingly bullish on the positive
impact we can make on May 7th."
