A little drive-by there!!!! Always rational, considered and most of all factual with my contributions. It's just that you have a major blind spot. But I haven't given up hope that there is at least some semblance of humanitarianism in you. Think Procrastinator35 sees you as a lost cause thoughYou can actually be quite rational when not posting on race/Jewish issues. Shorten like Abbott is unelectable unless you get a Krudd/Gillard car crash or in this case A Dutton.
The hard/right kid themselves that they are electable. The demographics dont work the hard right outside the few bible belt seats mostly have support from working class seats, this was illustrated when quite a few alp seats voted no for gay marriage. By and large the ALP will hold those seats. Meanwhile they will bleed middleclass (as they will vote against what is in their interests) seats to independents and the alp.
Now whilst the alp and the greens have ludicrous energy policies if the right think punters are going to vote for them because they kept renewables targets 10 points lower they are mad.
The ALP has got better over time with their political advertising/campaigning -not before time - and their seat-by-seat polling strategy. I really don't think it matters who leads the conservatives as my feeling is the electorate has by-and large made up its mind. It's just a question of who is best fitted to limiting the damage from the reactionaries perspective.
A reasonable coherent post. Keep it up.
