The difference being the party members can deliver that judgement in the leadership election itself.

I'd really like to see a new face like that in charge. Maybe then Labour could be the party they should be and forget all the dinosaur policies which will never het them elected.

I think the 'party they should be' is the problem. Some want a centrist party closer to what New Labour were and others want a union-loving socialist party. It's hard to know what Labour could do.
Who is a Labour voter? Is it people working in public services? That can only get you so far. They then probably need people who are considered 'working class' in the former industrial communities where they used to be so strong but these demographics are probably better spoken to by the Tories policy on personal taxation (Lib Dem idea btw
), fuel duty freezes or UKIP and their policy on immigration.
I don't actually know to be honest.
