Every poll in WA say that the ALP will easily win the state election on Saturday. Shifty Carpenter says that the LIBS are ahead 55 to 45 and when he said that at a media press conferrence the media laughed at him and constantly interjected to say that only yesterday shifty Carpenter was saying it was neck and neck. Shifty Carpenter wants to win in a massive landslide so that he gets control of the upper house. I only hope that there is enough independents in the upper house to block the uranium bam that shifty Carpenter wants. West Poll which is one of the more accurate polls has the ALP ahead 56 to the LIBS 44.

Every political contest for about the last 20 Years in Australia has had both parties claim it's "going to be close" Get used to it. The only time I remember a politician claiming they were going to "shit it in" was Jeff Kennett in 1999 and we remember what happened with that one don't we. > Shifty Carpenter wants to win in a massive landslide so that he gets > control > of the upper house.

Yup, Labor to win yet another election, no surprises there.

So it > will get in if people feel sorry for it. They are both doing it, it's so that those who think their vote has little effect outside registering displeasure, might consider the possibility of it being effective in changing the government. Blame the logic people use when they vote.
