Not Scottish, but why anyone would want to vote yes and get that idiot Salmond in proper power... needs their head looking at.

They'll be bankrupt within 5 years with that idiot at the helm.

You realize that David Cameron is a bigger idiot.  I mean, if we're going to have a battle of idiots, Cameron would win hands down.

Take an economic course and you'll be slapped hard in the face with all the stupid things that the Cameron government has done.  I'm not saying that Salmond would be a good leader for an Indpendent Scotland.  Rarely, if ever, is the person who calls for independence the right person to lead a government after it gains it.  There are typically different forces and responsibilities involved in either.  That said, Salmond has already been responsible for leading Scotland in the limited capacity that he has lead it over the years, and I'm not sure how he has lead Scotland poorly.  Or for that matter, down a worse road than David Cameron has lead the entirety of the UK. 

I know, who in their right mind would give Scottish people an opportunity to decide if they want to be independent eh? Given that it was that very same idiot Cameron who actually allowed the referendum.

As for the economic argument. Cameron's government inherited an utter dud. I was actually in favour of the decisions made post 2010 having studied economis and business at degree level and they are currently proving to be the right ones. We are currently one of the strongest Western Economies and our  recovery is outpacing pretty much anywhere else that was impacted by the financial crisis.
