You have to wonder about his morals and/or judgement don't you I mean whilst trying to dig himself out of the mire he's just been claiming that Brown can still lead them to victory.....
I reckon most people would have a lot more respect for Milliband if he simply told the truth and acknowledged what we already know - that Brown is a total loser who's on the verge of destroying New Labour and must be replaced if they are to have any chance of winning the next election.
This makes interesting reading:

If Brown goes (which is sadly unlikely), then there will have to be an election no later than next May.

I don't disagree entirely but a hell of a lot of what they've been up to over the last few years has been beyond the pale but that hasn't stopped them doing it and, sadly, getting away with it
I reckon they're so desperate now they'd rather take that chance than stick with their version of King Canute and seal their fate.
