Backdoor Polls

Over at Back Pages, when the polls say Latham is ahead all discussion and comments are about the joy of Australia without Horrible Howard. Conversely, when the polls suggest Howard is ahead all discussion and comments are about how the polls are wrong. Uptrend, outlier, blah blah blah. They’re only polls and shouldn’t be treated so seriously but if Back Pages devotees want a hint as to why the voters appear to be dropping Latham they might go here and take a quick refresher course.

  • I think that people finally realise that running the Liverpool council into financial ruin, which is now in receivership, is a little different to totally fucking up a nations economy. Latham will be assisted by the member for Hotham “Magic Pudding” Crean as the federal treasurer, so if Latham can’t fuck the economy on his own I’m sure Crean will make it a certainty.
    I also noticed that PM Howard’s popularity, 54%, had increased further over Mark “Bling Bling” Latham’s meagre 34% as preferred leader. It would seem that the public aren’t as stupid as the likes of John Pilger, Phillip Adams, Bob Brown and all the rest of the lefto fasciasts..
    Add to this that Labor has been found deficient to the tune of around 1 billion dollars on national education and university subsidies as well as the promissed tax cut that they now admit cannot be implemented because the minimum federal costings put it at 10 billion dollars and it’s easy to see why voters are ditching these Labor morons…

  • I wouldn’t employ Shielsy to clean my dunny, let alone listen to his analysis of opinion polls. Ignore him Kev and he’ll just go away.

  • No rush for Howard to go to the polls, the longer he leaves it the better. letting Latham and his colleagues proving they are morons day by day is a simple but brilliant election tactic.
