      If you are that passionate, why don't you run for parliament, or the senate yourself???? Instead of wasting your vote 'cos it was to ****ing hard to make a decision.

        i spent 12 long hours on saturday trying to convinve last minute voters to make the choice i was promoting, i then assisted auditing the counting process in the booth and was very dismayed at the 60 odd ballot papers put into the box without a mark of any kind, was this latham or people just unable to make a choice, i dont know, if someone did that please tell me why? i treated all voters coming in with repect although it wasnt returned from all, most were quite nice, the smart ones took all the how to vote papoers, the different ones just refused everything, but i respect their choice if that is what it was?

            Its easy to sit on our arses criticising politicians and do nothing about it. But at least Steven is contributing.
            While not everyone might agree with his choice at least he doesn't want to vote for his favourite tax cheat or halfwit has been.

              The thought has definately crossed my mind and after speaking to my husband today it is not out of the question.....

              Wasnt too ****in hard , obviously yours was, because you voted for twats because you had no other alternative....

              You call my vote wasted, I call your wasted......from my point of view, I am not the one who copped out.....

              Seriously its about time people grew some balls and didnt conform just because they know nothing better......

                  Good work Steven. I was workling too, as I do most elections. I love our robust democracy, but people who sneer at it shit me too. We can't complain if we don't engage in the process. And if you don't engage then it's pretty weak to attack people who make the effort.

                    A duopoly is not a true democracy. Having a choice of one more than one political party was never the intent of our constitution. In fact nowhere does our constitution mention "party" in a political context. What we have has been corrupted by the process of achieving government.

                    Whilst I loathed Pauline Hanson, I was encouraged by her attempt to form a third major political party. That is why I am encouraged by the rise of the greens as a third major political party.

                    The results of this election is the Australian electorate screaming for choice, true choice, not just a choice between two parties trying to out "conservative" the other. Again whilst I don't necessarily agree with the Greens on their stances, we need them as they represent true choice.

                    If I had my way I would break the coallition into the Liberals and Nationals again and make them campaign as separate entities.

                    Chook.
