Interesting, when discussing with a friend he thought some of the policies of the Lib's were worth considering and that the leader of the Lib's carried himself OK for a young'un considering circumstances.
I always thought the template (Qld election) indicated the way things were go, from what I saw Deb F was less than useless but some upside in the WA opposition leader yet WA has a total of 2 (yes 2) members of the opposition.
Wait to see if/when MM decides he has to open up and abandon "hermit" mentality, could be fun to watch. Popcorn anyone!
