The difference is the Coalition always gain ground during election campaignsOppositions rarely win elections, Governments lose them.
It's always been so.
The Howard government got tired, 'mean and tricky' and that describes the current one as well.

Even the Howard govt picked up a lot of ground in 2007 and almost won the next election because of the "real" Julia Gillard and then totally cleaned up after that despite being led by a dill that lasted half a term.
There is something seriously wrong with Labor's preparation and a lot of it has to do with homework.
IMO Howard lost because Labor were sharp, Rudd was a showman and they really just presented Rudd as a younger, more in tune Howard, they basically just agreed with Howard's good policies and focused on his bad one 'work choices'.Oppositions rarely win elections, Governments lose them.

This time Albo has not made a public appearance and is now trying to sell himself and his story in 6 weeks, two problems with that, one there is a lot of issues to cover and two he can't afford stuff ups, because he doesn't have time to fix it.
If the media trip him up again the wheels will get wobbly because Albo will have a lot riding on him and the pressure from outside the party as well as from inside will be enormous, the mean girls wont be happy, they have been on the opposition bench for a long time.
I will bet every member of ASF knew the cash rate without even thinking about it, and probably the unemployment rate too.
Yet the alternative prime minister didn't know?

‘Elections aren’t memory tests’ Tanya Plibersek defends Anthony Albanese's mistake | ABC News
They actually are, a P.M is constantly given politically sensitive questions and expected to know the answers on all current subjects, it was the pausing and the ahhing that toppled Abbott. He never sounded as though he was completely on top of the issue, if he was given time it was o.k, but the media don't give P.M's time.
What is the main problem Biden has? So Tanya saying it isn't a memory test, really I think she could have thought of a better out.
Lucky its early days.
Scomo is the king of the shtfight though. They found a clip of Albo stealing a speech from a movie that was doing the rounds yesterday.
Today's stuff up reinforced that image of an empty vessel. Add it to his current makeover and there's a line of attack.
He can't clam up under
I'm with John Howard, so what?Lucky its early days.

He can't clam up under pressure. Scomo rolls in sht for fun. Albo seems to freeze and offer excuses when caught.
You have a brain along with most posters on here. The masses out there are pretty easily swayed with optics.I'm with John Howard, so what?
I don't care. This isn't a spelling bee or something. Every speech doesn't have to be totally original. We don't expect every PM to match Winston Churchill.
I would like some real questions and less stupid nothings. I would like the contenders to talk about their philosophy, not the price of milk.
It would be nice if the media thought like you.I'm with John Howard, so what?

So obviously making Albo the "Australian Biden" is the look they are going for.
