I have never seen Lib supporters so disappointed. I have family members inside the party and I can tell you they aren't thrilled.It will be earth shattering for labor, if the Coalition win, I've never seen an all in election like this one.
I personally can't see how they can't win, but I think there are a lot of people saying nothing, they will be the ones who decide it IMO.I don't think there has been an election where the policies have been so thin, but I don't think you can blame Labor for doing that after the last election. They are obviously going for the minimalist strategy , matching the Coalition's vote grabbers and throwing in a few of their own.
If Labor don't win this time then as you say they will be shattered because what else could they do ?
Saw an article that basically said that if Josh Frydenberg gets voted out this election. Then expect Dutton to take over the libs leadership.
Albo isn't really convincing at this point. His nerves are very noticeable.
Scomo is the opposite, wants it too much to the point of desperation.
Maybe they will all go?Maybe Dutton will go too.
Maybe they will all go?
If you think about it, the media is indicating the highest profile Libs are going to get the chop, why wouldn't it be obvious that the lower profile ones will also.What they need is renewal. Josh, Scott, Dutton, Taylor , Stuart Robert, Tudge et al are basically useless.
No doubt some will hang on but if Labor gets in I expect quite a number of by elections in Liberal seats afterwards.

I think they can hold the ground in QLD and maybe WA due to the local media being on their side and no independent media except the ABC but NSW will be nasty imo.
The Libs have no presence in W.A, Hastie might do o.k in Mandurah, but I wouldn't be surprised if the rest are wiped out. ?I think the Libs are gone in WA at least 3 seats IMHO still we will find out soon bit over the election BS TBH

Really looking forward to it, as I've said earlier, we need a change of Govt, it has been all a bit hum drum for the last three years.
Hastie seems middle of the road decent guy, had a talk with him today at the early voting place out next to the hospital, when I took the daughter up there to to do an early absentee vote, she came down from Perth to drop the grandkids off.This is worth playing with to check seats Hastie looks fairly safe

One of the greatest problems facing in Australia in my view is that this has permeated right through society.culture war stuff setting people against against each other
One of the greatest problems facing in Australia in my view is that this has permeated right through society.
Even among friends and others I see face to face there's quite a few I wouldn't dare say even the slightest political comment to these days as they're just so highly primed on the whole thing.
Morrison didn't light that fire, it was already burning, but he's thrown and awful lot of fuel on it.
My view is that the only thing that'll fix it is not simply a change of government but a crisis. A proper, real crisis that sees Australians demands action not words.
Crisis?
I mean a major and prolonged one. Economic most likely but if not that then something else drastic enough that the population demands a strong leader who makes things happen.
To be clear I don't wish for that in the slightest but I can't see Australian politics improving until such a crisis arises and the lack of leadership we have is ultimately pushing us toward it. When nobody's steering the ship well you can't necessarily predict what it runs into but you can predict that it ends up running into something sooner or later.
