    That is true. They honestly think they can BS the voters and given the choice we have they actually can.

    Both talk like broken records.

    ScoMo has nothing but his faded economy blah blah that nobody wants to hear anymore. God bless China for our economy

    Is it only me or does anybody else think Shorten may have picked up some skills from KRudd?

    If you mean being a self centred egotistical nutter, then yes.

    I would still like an answer as to why the rape charge against him was never investigated.

    He didn't crash two cars while texting either.

    The last one he said he wasn't texting, but spilled his coffee on his lap. I thought drinking coffee whilst driving was illegal.

    That fixes me up then

    PS. The ABC have put up a swing calculator for those of us with straight faces..




    Move to slider to your desired outcome

    Outside of any birthday cake moments, I'm giving 79 seats to the ALP, 65 for LNP and 7 for the rest.

    That is actually quite an impressive simulator ...for those who are bored with other games.

    Interesting... if I set a swing of +4% to Labour in VIC and +4% to LNP in NSW while leaving everything else neutral, the LNP wins hands down by 4 seats.
    I am just very roughly basing this on the performance of their respective State elections earlier this year.
    Pretty sure some National seats in NSW and QLD will fall to OTH but not directly to Labor while Wentworth will go back to Liberal, no way will they accept Labor's tax plan or an Indie who might deal with them.

    Polls have been very wrong in the last two State elections and I am NOT BETTING on the current strong Labor dominance shown in the list of Polls from that calculator.

    Shorten has got a long way to go to convince swinging voters that he is a worthy successor to the Libs. His party might win, I wonder if he will retain his seat though.

    The Police have not dropped the case. It is still active awaiting further investigation, which has been put on hold by the Labor dominated Government.
    As with the Gillard case, they are keen to go.

    Do you have anything to back up that claim? It doesn't sound right to me.

    It came from a detailed, written by her, account that was attached to another site.
    The site has had a major revamp and it no longer obvious where to find it.

    EDIT

    Found the Pickering Post article that states there was insufficient evidence to proceed.
    That happens when you get the word from above.
    Cannot find the other article.

    Well I’m tipping Shorten will actually open his mouth, which of course means crap will dribble out and alienate the swing voters, Libs in for another term. Of course, if you view my AFL tipping lately, I just put the “kiss of death” on the Libs.
    Cheers

    Shorten is on the level. That means the crap dribbles out both sides Al.

    ALP in a canter.
