Please bear in mind that the Tories need an entirely unprecedented swing to get a slender majority (which would retain the parliamentary instability of this last Labour term), and LD have made massive inroads into the popular consciousness. In a hung parliament, LD look to be the critical party, which, even in a Tory-LD coalition (unlikely, judging by Clegg's conditions of co-operation) would hopefully result in at least reform to the electoral system and a more open dialogue on things like immigration - and, crucially, Clegg has asked over and over for a cross-party think tank on economic control.

6 months ago I didn't want a hung parliament; right now, it feels like our only hope.
