826 Edward StJohn – Edward, it is news to me that I’m angry. Anger is not one of those emotions that I readily experience. Jim is an old sparring partner back in the “Bolt days”. Now I wouldn’t give you two cents for it. Might suit your tastes though Edward.

Yeah, thats what I love about this site. Keeping it real! Id be lost if i was following the MSM on all this.

Here’s my summary of fairly low risk assessments:

- NSW and QLD will deliver a bag of seats, probably 10 minimum.
- SA and Tas will certainly deliver 4, and most likely 5.
- WA is unlikely to provide a net gain to the coalition.
- That leaves the ALP needing one or two extra seats, with plenty of likely candidates in Vic, NT, and extras in NSW, QLD, SA
- LNP could still win, but its highly unlikely. Will take an implosion from Rudd and a lot of plain, dumb, and improbably consistent luck in marginals.
- better than 50/50 chance Howard wont be PM even if they do, having lost Bennelong
- chances of a hostile senate past July next are rather slim.
- the real toss-up is whether a landslide is on, or just a safe 4-5 seat margin.

All the evidence is that the WA marginals are not swinging, or even swinging to Lib.

Labor will win Hasluck and hold Cowan and Swan. Stirling is 50/50 and I have $200 on SASman..WA is not going to let us down.

” LOL. Fat chance of that, but I like the speculation.”

And it does reinforce the message that a vote for the Liberals is a vote for an unstable leadership in the new parliament.

The West Australian and Sunday Times, which love John Howard will always continue to push the line thet JWH is the best thing since sliced bread.

Oh and add 6PR to the mix as well, who btw only scored some 85 in the last radio ratings.
