Although Morrison performed better than the other two debates.
Shorten detailed Labor policies but all I heard Morrison talk about is their/his record and trying to pull apart Labor's policies. Still not sure what their (Libs) key policies are, more of the same? Failed on climate policy though, I just didn't understand it.
Labor is certainly the one taking the big risks.
Neither was truly outstanding though.
Then they started drinking their own bath water. The beginning of the end.

A pathological phobia of water vehicles does not a policy make I guess.

ANSWER THE ******* QUESTION BILL!
I saw a clip of the show on Facebook once and she was bad. She kept stammering and and screwing up what she was saying.
Theoretically it is going to have a small impact but no politician is going to admit that.
It has dropped somewhere between 15-25% completely independently of any tax change and looks like it will continue to.
The negative gearing bubble is over. It only worked in a rising market.

I cringe when Sharri Markson is on
There's an air of snobby, sorority chick about her, all them giggles and talking like we're all dumb
I have a feeling that million dollar bet on a Shorten victory may represent a News columnist betting syndicate.
When Morrison the one behind in the polls and puts on a pretty weak performance like that he knows he is just trying to save the furniture. If this was a real contest you would have seen him have a proper crack rather than spend an hour talk about nothing in particular.

Bolt also criticised his own paper for that article attacking Shorten’s Mum. Said that her achieving her goals decades later did not mean she didn’t make a genuine sacrifice.
Maybe a few see the writing on the wall and want to look fair and reasonable.
Maybe they've got internal polling suggesting that Abbott and Dutton aren't toast after all and a Morrison loss would be great for the dream team of Abbott and Dutton in opposition?
Yes was very subdued. Maybe was coached that this was a more serious forum and so the shouty Channel 7 style wouldn't have suited.

The ALP apparently is ready for the hatchet job the Murdoch media might be about to unleash in the final week.

Labor is bracing for an escalating assault from News Corp and fears further attacks in the final days of the election campaign after a furious Bill Shorten savaged Rupert Murdoch's company over its reporting of his mother's life and career.
Mr Shorten and his senior colleagues accused the media empire of being a "cheer squad" for Prime Minister Scott Morrison and cited its use of tax havens in the Cayman Islands as one reason it wanted to stop Labor taking power on May 18.
Labor deputy leader Tanya Plibersek said the company was trying to block funding increases for schools and hospitals while protecting "tax loopholes".
"I wonder if that's got anything to do with the fact that Rupert Murdoch and his companies pay little or no tax in Australia? It could be something to do with the fact that News [Corp] has paid very little tax in Australia in recent years," Ms Plibersek said.
The sharp criticism of Mr Murdoch's company and its tax affairs is seen as a warning shot in a deepening dispute after years of friction and negative stories about Labor throughout the campaign.
In an emotional address to the media that saw him come close to tears, Mr Shorten slammed the company's Sydney newspaper, The Daily Telegraph, for a report that used the headline "mother of invention" and suggested he had misled voters about his mother.
Bolt is actually backing his own paper the Herald Sun who refused to publish the story. It’s a case of News Corp saying one thing up north and another down south, but all with the ultimate aim of getting the Tory’s back in.
Its not just the libs factions who will need to kiss and make up after its over

concerned that the more Shortern talks the more he reminds people how much they dislike him!
Its got the Hilary Clintons about it this election...Shorten feels he is entitled to the gig based on knifing everyone else.

See how easily the brain dead are duped about preferred prime minister polls
Both are under 50% with one slightly behind the other but all the brain dead focus on is the 5% difference....so easily fooled
