a tory lib/dem pact will almost certainly lead to another election in a year or two, which the conservatives are likely to win with a proper majority, increasing their power - and the length of their reign. Personally, I'd rather the Lib Dems tell Cameron to fuck off so they're forced to operate as a minority government (allowing the opposition to unofficially unite, which would put them in a far stronger position to veto the Tory's than I suspect any kind of Tory-Lib Dem pact would).
