The last fortnight for Labor wasn't as bad as the one before. That would be hard to top. Also, relief on the super front for those who still want to believe.
Possibly within statistical error too.

Other impressions?
Some smart **** knob in Adelaide has made a dog's toy called Droolia.
It's ok to be disrespectful so long as everyone else is?
They should come out with An Eddie Mabo dog's toy. Can you imagine? Yeh...exactly.
I'm not a labour supporter so forget that angle.
Big odds to be had if you're prepared to put money on that.Ill call it early. Labor imo will start gaining ground. Libs will lose based on policy, unless they have something up their sleeve.
Hung Parliament 34.00
Labor wins 81 - 85 seats 41.00
Labor wins 86 - 90 seats 67.00
Labor wins 91 seats or more 81.00

When I read moXJO's post I took from it just that he was suggesting Labor would now start gaining better numbers, not that they would actually win the election. But I can see that indeed moXJO was predicting this.Big odds to be had if you're prepared to put money on that.
The Coalition NBN policy is a hard sell. It is, put simply, not as sexy as Labor's. I actually congratulate them for making a tough political choice although the toughness is perhaps influenced to some extent by their advantage in the polls. This is what we need more of, from both sides.I'll be surprised if the government doesn't get a lift as a result of Julia Gillard's successful trip to China and the somewhat second rate sounding NBN policy from the Coalition.
Plus at least the perception that our border controls are so shot that it will be impossible for the Coalition to reverse the ever increasing flow of boats.

Can you clarify, moXO?

Before you do, I've just noticed that the option of Labor winning 76 - 80 seats is not there.I might take those odds on offer at the moment for a punt
Fear not moXJO, but nobody wants the carbon tax. It is the petard upon which Labor is hoist.I think labor has just enough left over policy that people still want (..Carbon tax)...
Poor Wayne.
He won't be delivering a surplus past, present or future.

For this FY so far, the deficit to the end of Jan is $26.8bn.
The overwhelming majority of the electorate is against the carbon tax. Agree that the NBN and NDIS are winning initiatives for the government.I think labor has just enough left over policy that people still want (NBN, NDIS Carbon tax, small business tax offset etc)
Labor do like playing with themselves in the mud.

Stephen Conroy's comments leaves one thinking that this battle within his own party is more important than battle with the Opposition.
This little pre-selection spat got a run on the ABC's 730 tonight.

I saw that too, followed by 'Mad as Hell' which included quite a few digs at the Labor government. Didn't turn off the TV until 8pm tonight
The whole pre-selection for Roxon's seat seems to have gone pear shaped for the Emily's Listers who were desperate to get a female candidate in. The one that won is a croney of Conroy though so I can't imagine he is much chop
Another Green/Labor hare brain scheme to divert your attention away from the critical issues.
Fast rail from Brisbane to Melbourne. Brisbane to Sydney in 3 hours.
I doubt very much that the kids born today will ever see it.
