Tokamak posted:I still have no idea what the Liberal Party sees in the potato. He "unifies" the party and allows them to pivot right to an experienced leader who isn't Tony Abbott. Are any of those things going to save them in the next election if Labor campaigns smart? No, but the LNP seems content acting like they don't know that.

Doctor Spaceman posted:People have been talking up his leadership ambitions / potential for a while but I don't see what he has to offer over other people. Ah I read it as "what do they see in him at all?" He satisfies the right since they've got a conservaboner for law and order poo poo and he's something that a liberal voter would see as representing John Everyman while still being a sack of poo poo heavily ideological neocon fuckhead. Why PM? The right wing libs are even dumber than the moderate libs and if you drill down into the right libs further I'm sure half of them want actual fascism. He's also all they've got as far as someone with a high profile and gets thrown endless bones because of it. Who cares though he's going to lose his seat and hopefully have his head crushed by rock wielding Keynesian wizards.

To be fair, Labor hasn't had a remotely competent campaign for a decade now. Luckily, they could run a campaign of musical farts and look good against a Dutton PM.

They got a lot of help in it from a truly listless LNP campaign, sure, but the last Labor campaign was surprisingly effective.

Sometimes this thread reminds of a woman I heard call 3AW on the morning of 911 and start bawling "last night my baby boy asked me for we were going to war and I said yes".

Tasmanian Liberal Eric Abetz says the Turnbull government should pursue a postal plebiscite to resolve the way forward on marriage equality – but he will not agree to be bound by the result, noting that plebiscites by their nature are “non-binding”. Oh glad we cleared that up

I really wonder why they even try to keep up a thin veneer of of being OK with gays sometimes.
