Does little to the vote though Tony might be disliked but the whole labor party is hated

The polls don't reflect that Labor are hated but they do show the Coalition winning comfortably and I still expect the Coalition to win the next election.

The big but is when the election is called the gap will close dramatically as is the case in most elections its then that Abbott's negative rating may become a problem how much that is I guess we will have to wait and see.

You would have to think Abbott will be leader at the next election and given his polling Labor will want that.
 
The ferocious end-of-year attack over the affair - in which the Coalition was unable to prove allegations of illegal behaviour by Ms Gillard but still demanded she resign - coincides with Mr Abbott's disapproval rate climbing to 63 per cent, a record for him and the second highest in Nielsen poll history.

That's right Focus. But it was his failure to pin the guilt on Gillard that lost him votes. Had he nailed her he would have been a hero. As it was she has become a hero with feminist social media litterers for her ability to manipulate crooks like Wilson and Blewitt and smear Abbott.

The same thing happened with Turnbull when he had Rudd and Swan done and dusted for misleading Parliament over the Utegate affair. The Greche fiasco turned the heat back on him, and they escaped to plot again.
 
I would disagree with the polls on Tony Abbott's popularity. The only people who answer their phones between 5.30 pm and 9pm are bogans and Cascade Coal's Directors wives, who have nothing else to do except check their visa card bills, and take calls from charity organisers.

Most folk at the Ross Island Hotel including the Tuesday girls think Tony is, and I quote, " A bit of alright, a good bloke, says it as it is," etc, etc.

His popularity is great in those marginal seats which will send Labor in to oblivion at the coming election in March 2013.

Denial. Sometimes it's just very difficult to move on from, but don't worry. This pitiful and sorry excuse for a third rate government will sent down the electoral poo chute soon enough.

The latest Essential poll might help you to move on from this sad and sorry state of denial.

The Coalition is now 55% 2PP.
 
They'll be cautious of Labor waving the same flags with me too on the other side as they did in the 2007 election.

Funny you should say that GG. Last Thursday night I received a call from from a pollster. It was the Nielson Poll. I got the impression that the young female pollster didn't like my answers much.

About time to roll out some policy, plenty of time yet but they should wave the flag a bit.

The last thing the coalition should roll out is policy.
Today Swan was asking the Australian public to send some policy, shows they have no idea.
Imagine if the coalition said we are going to introduce x,y and z.
Labor would say well x and y are great, we will introduce them, treasury says z is an loser.
Next day in the news "coalition wants to impliment z, treasury says it's a loser.
This government has no idea, no principles and no ideals, IMO they no longer know who they represent and therefore will take on anybody's policy, if it is votes positive.

The problem Abbott has is that he has built the current lead on negativity and smear i,e, three worded slogans.

If he does run out policy he will have to front cameras and explain and we all know how that goes

Goodness, Ifocus, are you really so naive?

Who actually dishes out the most smear - Gillard or Abbott?

Abbott has never called Gillard the names she has called him. Get real...:rolleyes:

You are simply parroting Gillard propaganda which attempts to make Abbott the source of all evil while Gillard chooses to ignore the three fingers pointing back to herself...lol

IFocus, you are a typical Green/Labor socialsit left wing parrot repeating the words that keep coming out of Gillard, Emerson and Albaneze mouths.You should try something new.

That negativity and smear campaign from the Labor Party is wearing thin and the majority of voters are sick and tired of hearing the same old crap day after day.
 
Emerson wants to make a federal case out of the fact that Abbott has has not read Rares' decision where he put the "slipper" into Mal Brough for assisting Ashby.

Justice Rares found Mr Brough had acted with Mr Slipper's accuser James Ashby and another Slipper staffer to “advance the interests of the LNP and Mr Brough”

Nothing new here. Nicola Roxon had already relayed this decision to the court weeks before;

“The Commonwealth strongly believes that this process has been one which is really for an ulterior purpose, not for purposes of an ordinary workplace complaint,” and ”A number of other participants other than the applicant [Mr Ashby] were party to formulating this complaint with the clear intent of publicising it before it was filed, with the clear intention of harming Mr Slipper and advantaging his political opponents.”

All Rares had to do was add "LNP" and "Brough."
