It could be a good tactical move - it serves as a good way to tell the public that despite what the Tories say, voting Lib Dem won't automatically mean Brown gets to be PM. It is a good way to show the Lib Dems are an independent party and will make choices on what they think is best for the nation... it also is a good position to agree a coalition with New Labour - it makes it clear that New Labour need to offer an attractive deala nd not just assume he Lib Dems will agree a coalition because they've got not other choices.
Probably. It just seemed like a dangerous thing to do, as he seemed to be saying that if the numbers were wrong he wouldn't work with them.

It works alright when you have a two- or 2½-party system with support divided geographically.
