		<description>[Given the deep sense of disillusion being felt in Tasmania at present, I predict stormy times ahead, with nobody wanting to see either major party with a majority Personally, I’m going to vote as much as possible for a hung Parliament, and I’ve heard several people say we need a political revolution.]

You&#039;re not an NSW basket case. Stop being precious.

		<description>Our second instalment is up here: http://tasmaniantimes.com/index.php?/weblog/article/kev1/

We have not changed very much in our expectations of how it might play out, but we do think Honey Bacon&#039;s campaign has been a bit slack, and on that basis we think Goodwin has the better chance.  But it&#039;s a very bizarre by-election so it&#039;s hard to say what will happen.</description>

		<description>Debate footage online at http://www.youtube.com/user/ThePembrokeDebate in 13 youtube parts.

Debate summary at http://tasmaniantimes.com/index.php?/weblog/article/the-debate1/

I was not present (thanks to flu) but am gradually getting through watching the coverage.  The mysterious Sharon Soo turns out to be the partner of Bill Harvey, presumably the Hobart Greens alderman of the same name who I think I noticed in a shot of the audience.</description>

		<description>Mercury reported there was a debate yesterday night, where pretty much everyone except Honey Bacon and Vanessa Goodwin showed up to be grilled on their positions. I can&#039;t seem to find it online. Said pretty much all the candidates except Mr James supported re enlargement of the parliament. On the right to die Mr cooper and MS soo were the most strongly in favor. Crotty Supported as long as it was not tied to health founding. James said he was leaning towards it and peers said he personally would like it but implied he would not support the bill.</description>
