Thanks Guys -
this is much more fun than The`Age or Crikey. Most of the comments are informative and interesting. And then there is the Absolute Hoot Factor reading the Liberal party stooge/s trying to put a spin on the fact that Howard and his crew are finished.
Thank God.

Adjusting for the usual Morgan face-to-face screwiness, youâ€™ve got the Government at 45.5% and Labor at 42%. Excellent.

Bryan Palmer’s chart of four pollsters does not support Steve’s figure of 45.5% for the Coalition

For the last two weeks the issues have been fought on the so called coalition strong points and thre’s no change. Have we reached bedrock?

Unfortunately, yes, things are looking better for the govt, though Morgan also reported that 49%, down 6, now think Australia is going in the right direction. 58%, up 6, now expect Labor to win; this is in line with the bookies.

The latest Morgan poll has the Coalition at 40.5% and Labor at 47%. Adjusting for the usual Morgan face-to-face screwiness, you’ve got the Government at 45.5% and Labor at 42%. Excellent. When even Morgan has the Government above 40%, you know they’re in good shape.
