I will vote for them, and lend them support via my website, if they adopt carbon taxes (offset by other tax reductions) instead of carbon trading as climate change policy. This is not just a federal issue as the state government could impliment most of them if they wanted. This will be better for both the economy and the environment than labor's policy.

Similarly for water - uniform pricing across drainage systems instead of rationing and subsidies.

Who however would vote conservative this very day?
It is true that poor oppositions make for poor governments and at this point in time I can not see myself voting for my party in NSW
But could I vote conservative?
If they have a plan why do we not know it now?
Howard was right you can not fatten a pig on market day.
To see Brendon Nelson an ex Labor man who never truly smiles leading federal Conservatives so badly is proof they need to move.
It seems to me putting an alternative way in place is step one why the silence?

12 or even 18 months from now as a few people get sick of Labor and Rudd Howard could step on the stage again.
But given the polling and it is so bad for them last nights meal should have been eaten in a blacked out coal mine.
It did no good that pig is going to have to eat fast even in NSW no real change is in sight.
