Obscuritan: I feel sorry for Julia she just wasn't ready - she hasn't got what it takes. Doesn't matter who they put in next they can't win the next election, provided the libs have the sense to put Turnbull in and get rid of Abbott.
Biggest game of musical seats the last 3 or 4 years!

tonyxf: Biggest game of musical seats the last 3 or 4 years!
Well, what a shame to get rid of Julia now that she has finally mastered the art of speaking words in riddles, paraphrasing, and confusing everyone... that used to be a sign of a good polly...
the other sign of a good polly was to talk in monotone and have everyone asleep before the speech finished...
I reckon Kev Rudd mastered both arts, but was shot outta the circus before he mastered the other sign.... talk talk talk and promises, promises, promises, but dont be seen to renege on them, but do it anyway...
Yeah, he copped it for the mining tax... letsee what happens,

Hi Martia - the trouble is - all the politicians are clones as are the political parties - we only have two to choose from and they are both ineffective - bring back Pauline.
Hi guys I really cant believe what is going on Gillard has lost media support they are baying for her blood and the flock oop's sorry voters will follow of course.
But its too late the Carbon tax has passed through... everything will go up just like the electricity charges, millions will be wasted for nothing.
The drought has broken just like Victoria is broken thanks to the Labour party here what a load of d..heads they were and corrupt to boot.
The future of this country hangs in the balance as the flock are such a fickle lot.

tonyxf: Did I say anything when I never voted Liberal and ended up with a GST?
Well us Liberal voters must plead guilty as charged on that one Tone, but we did leave the COFFERS FULL AND OVERFLOWING, didn`t take your crowd long to empty them, now the country broke, and we`ve got a new CARBON TAX...

The GST was not such a bad thing - consider for exmple that on some things eg womens personal items - we were paying close to 30%. We can't escape Death or taxes - but at least we have a fairer tax system.

And - will it realistically be anything more than extra money in the government coffers - coz the carbon tax plan is still very vague.
robplum: Oh there has been allegations raised however
Craig Thomson does not deny that the card, was his credit card, he believes it was used wrongly. He doesn’t deny that. He simply denies being the person who used the card.
Oh dear somebody must have stolen his credit card and then replaced it when he wasn't looking...poor little mite.

Martia: The difference is when Libs were voted out we were well into the black BUT when Labour gets voted out we will be way into the red as usual that sure does not add up to zero....better get your maths right.
