This is a very sensible assessment of how Labour is managing expectations for 2015: http://labour-uncut.co.uk/2014/06/27/290-and-ed-stays/
Getting back into power after a devastating defeat was always going to be a two-term project.
Like a patient trying to recover from a bad case of 'flu if you try to get up too soon and go back to work you risk a relapse that puts you back to square one (and that is not a prospect you should relish).
One of the most remarkable aspects of Ed Miliband is his complete lack of egotism. This is rare in a political leader - most of them are divas. He is working calmly and intelligently not just for the good of the party but for the future of the country - Labour will thank him in time for the preparations he is making now.
