The SNP is a minority administration and is only in power because in 2007 Labour had to accept that its share of the vote had shrunk by too much for a continuing Labour executive to have any legitimacy (besides, IIRC the Lib Dems also decided to walk away from the coalition).
Unless the SNP significantly improves its share of the vote in 2011, they have absolutely no chance of remaining in power. That said, Labour nationally is now so unpopular that the SNP is likely to do well out of the Westminster elections next year, regardless of any ill-feeling over Megrahi's release.
