It doesn't seem to matter whether you vote Liberal or Labor, either way the mining industry's candidate becomes PM
A shame the Liberals couldn't use The Angels 'Stand Up' as their theme tune as well as their mantra http://tinyurl.com/25bydt5

Can't we just replace nearly all politicians by some mix of Google Wave & social networking? At least until the robots are ready to govern?
Two polls, one front page, utter cognitive dissonance http://tinyurl.com/353sbnp #ausvotes

So now the minimum price for a 20 year old 2nd hand car is $2000? That'll keep P-platers off the roads. The poor ones anyway
On the plus side, the FedElection2010 campaign does seem to be slowing down time.

Even Westies who moved away decades ago are secretly pleased so much of election appears to be hanging on Westie opinion
