NT will punish Labor federally in 2010 as well.

ALP can thank exCLP leader Dennis Burke for ever winning Govt! Now DB has gone all the seats are coming back! Hendo is a clown! He's the Police Minister, we've no traffic Police (check our road toll) & it's near impossible to get sent to gaol. In my opinion, they're all corrupt amateurs! Weak on crime! Kids rules the streets! Cops resigning left & right! Now we have Krudd running on the spot looking busy but doing nothing! And don't get me started on that clown Mr 'Downward pressure' Swan!

I notice that when ALP are in danger the mainstream press manage to portray the election as between tired political parties. It would have been good had more voted.

unfortunately our media is still grilling the libs more than when they were in power.how bout some simple tough questions asked by the various media outlets, with the insistence of a real answer. Or are they just hoping the libs may provide some ideas for the great pretenders no in power.

Left wing bias is not a local thing. It is recognized around the free world that conservatives have a 5% hurdle, or so, that they need to leap to be electorally par. Historically this was known around the time of Horatio Nelson who entered parliament as a Whig who only supported the Tory, but who wanted time in office.

With the risk of being politically incorrect (hell, why not?), but does anyone else notice the government pimping Kate Ellis?
