		<description>I am willing to believe that the &lt;i&gt;West Australian&lt;/i&gt; was biased (particularly on the basis of personal animosities), I am not sure how much of an &lt;i&gt;explanation&lt;/i&gt; of the result it is.</description>

		<description>re: Generic Person
[And boy, can’t I wait to expeditiously eject John Stanhope.]

GP,
Looks like you get around a lot.
Tonight you have claimed to be living in NSW and voting the ACT.
How many states and territories do you vote in?</description>

		<description>If Grylls thinks that that National Party voters would tolerate an alliance with the guilty party (ALP) then he should think again.  We conservatives would rather spill a beaker full of hydrochloric acid on our laps than do anything which endorses, encourages or assists in any way Carpenter and his cronies.</description>

		<description>What about Albany it is getting awfully close there??

If Albany falls the Libs are home and hosed, shouldnt postals favour the Libs there???

Riverton is 50-50 but clearly the ALP cannot count on that seat.</description>

		<description>Ruawake@ 238

The Liberals will win Wanneroo easy.  They are most concerned about Riverton.  Riverton will decide government.  If you think Riverton wll fall to the Libs then you should revise your predictions.</description>

		<description>Wayne Thompson is completely right. Grylls has openly stated he is all for Uranium Mining. Liberals want to do it, and Labor don&#039;t. Liberals can make good on the 700 mil royalties for regions, Labor will not.

Unfortunate Mr Carpenter :)</description>

		<description>No 251

Easy, there&#039;s a $2 billion surplus complimented by the prospect of uranium mining.</description>

		<description>214,

&quot;Fulvio Sammut Says: 
September 8th, 2008 at 4:37 pm 
No matter what the Greens’ HTV says, 60 -70% of those predisposed to vote Greens will not stomach a preference to the conservatives.&quot;

I can vouch for that.  A girlfriend was handing out HTV for one of the Greens upper house candidates on Saturday.  She hasn&#039;t got a conservative bone in her body.  Even if the HTV she was handing out had conservatives at #2, she wouldn&#039;t put them there.  She puts (lower or upper house) Greens first, Libs last and then ranks the rest as per the HTV   ;-)  .....</description>
