Given that the " Me too" philosophy will probably win the next election,we have to look at the consequences of a Labor white wash whereby they will have so many seats that we will all suffer a NSW debacle of having to put up with a totally dysfunctionally Govt for the next 16 years!

The Coalition stuffed up on IR but they have given us a strong economy that will only exist in the dreamworld of Labor philosophy.Gough Whitlam presided over an economy in a resources boom yet busted our economy within two years of power.Paul Keating gave us "Banana Republic Scenarios" with double digit inflation,18% interest rates,10% unemployment and a dollar at it's lowest ebb of 40 cents US.Imagine travelling OS now with such a devalued currency?

If Kevin romps in with a huge margin,then we the electorate will not have the capacity to vote them out if they bring us asunder before the next poll.

The electorate must remember the heady days of,"It's Time" and the consequences of a Peter Garrett rock populism that brings poverty to the very people whom they profess to represent.History does repeat itself.

It doesn't matter who's in government. Their point of view is for their own concerns. If you look at the history of government, They all do the same thing and its greed!, money, and the small mindedness of their their short 70 years on this planet. Give or take. Message too the world! You are being conned. I know what their is up too. One half wants to make money and the other half wants too live. Me! I just sit on the fence and watch. EVOLUTION! You are not going to see what we can really be. And thats a fact!

Take a breath Ajay, who stopped the Latham landslide?
No one lead by an idiot with policy's to match it was clear to me two months before the train wreck was on, I had to live with it.
That morning at 8.10 am I shook the hand of a Nationals booth Capitan and said congrats on your win.
No blood in the streets a lot of pain and numbness from my side nothing else.
Your plea is a shout into a hollow drum, this time you are badly lead, we have far more than workchoices to blame.
Can you think we have forgotten AWB? pages of lies neglect and shame for your party.
You are no fool friend you must understand the me too is thin?
Climate change last minute changes to workchoices so very many More ALP policy's Howard is using me too?
Yes old John is a master of using other policy's and flip flopping.
Have the grace to handle your landslide with the honesty I did mine.
Understand my party's destruction by its own hand[ helped by Latham/ Crean] led to our return better than ever.
Your party will prosper one day, after it learns to learn from its public flogging in every state and now the federal Parliament.
Have you ever asked since , no contest, some state Labor governments are so dreadful WHY CANNT WE BEAT THEM?

Oh Ajay, O Ajay yea of little faith
Do you still believe there are reds
under the beds, fairies at the bottom
of the garden and corporate business
operates for the benefit of its
employees? What Howard has done to
Australia in the name of economic
development is not out of place
alongside the rape of Nankin.

Arjay, I think you place far too much in the government's influence on the economy. You say that the coalition gave the country a strong economy only dreamed of by Labor, but to be honest, with reserve bank independence, the government doesn't have all that much ability to influence the core economic conditions.

There's only two things a government can really do to have a large impact on inflation - they can choose to spend, or to not spend.

The Howard government has largely opted for the latter, while simultaneously flogging off a number of public assets.
This is how they have claimed a 'strong' economy.

This recent piece did a good job at highlighting this:

The problem is, that the coalition government has spent a great deal, but it's all been election pork-barrelling and never mind the record high advertising budget.

Alternatively, a government can choose to spend - with the current state of our infrastructure, I would say it's a necessary and the flow on effects on productivity will offset the risks posed by inflation - it's a necessary step for future development.

So no Arjay, I don't think the 'Ruddslide' needs to be contained at all. I think the past decade of a 'Howardslide' needs to be contained, and it's not too soon either.

Arjay's own little scare campaign: "If Kevin romps in with a huge margin,then we the electorate will not have the capacity to vote them out if they bring us asunder before the next poll." Duh!

We can vote him in but we can't vote him out? How does that work?

Ah, I see that Arjay's history happens in the future: "...the consequences of a Peter Garrett rock populism that brings poverty to the very people whom they profess to represent. History does repeat itself."

Maybe history does repeats itself- Arjay's OLO history certainly does, over and over like a cracked record.
