well the point is now moot since Howard won with an increased majority but the war wasn't a big issue either as many suspected

I could balance John's Labor argument and explain why Howard is or was at least originally benefiting from Hawke/Keating economic reforms but John whom I assume is an ideologue with either dismiss me for a Labor supporter or just dismiss me

simply put for the Americans - Labor = democrats (social issues) and Liberal = republicans (greedy corporations and economics)

the left have moved considerably to the right in the past 20 years and the right have moved considerably to the left - both parties now are more or less centrists


Aussies: Welcome to the Rudd Regime
Yanks: Finally someone sensible in the White House
Others: G'day mate.
