If and when Salmond quits politics he SNP is in dire trouble. Remember their previous leader was John Swinney, who is currently running the finance department. Under his tenure the SNP almost vanished from sight.
Attitudes towards independence in Scotland are completely disconnected from the popularity or otherwise of the SNP, which at the moment is for its devotees a personality cult centred on Wee Eck and for everyone else the only viable alternative government to Scottish Labour.
