Re: Voting?
Voted yesterday, early voting, no need to give a reason, no ID just lob in and vote.
Voted Howard, Kevins a bit thick, he might speak mandarin but in the real world the little genius voted against water infastructure in brisbane, yes thats brisbane which went to level 6 water restrictions yesterday, perhaps if he wins he should hand all queenslanders a bucket with kevin on it

Re: Voting?
Look at the dental plan, ohhhhh free dental, erm no the amount given covers only a check up - no actual treatment.
Make housing more affordable - HOW.
Make food cheaper, really pulling the leg now.
Cheaper petrol LOL whats hes gonna change world oil prices.
More for childcare, but taking away training places for the unemployed.
Computer rebates for kids - by removing the family payment bonus.

As for the water, as I said the man lacks plain common sense. The guy has a stong multi million dollar PR team behind him and most of the people I know voting for him are doing so because interst rates are high, food is expensive, petrol is going up, and think he can change those things, lets see eh
I really think he will win, and the publics reaction when we get more of the same will be amusing.

Re: Voting?
Nope voted Howard (not perfect either - said that enough times) but because Rudd seems to have absolutely nothing but hot air, hes gonna fix this that and the other - with no mention of HOW.

Look, I'm not pretending that Rudd won't say anything to get in and that a Labo(u)r goverment won't have it's flaws (let's be realistic and look at Blair...) ... but more Howard with a Costello chaser?
Not for my money ... which isn't apparently valid currency yet

Re: Voting?
I can't vote (not a citizen - yet).. but holy sh1t how do you choose between Howard and Rudd? they are both as bad as each other.... i'm just glad I don't have to choose either of them this time round. And really you're not voting for Howard are you.. you're voting for Costello.. that makes it worse!
Good luck to those having to choose.......

Re: Voting?
Interests rates high????? they are bloody low compared to what we have had to put up with under Labor.
People seem to have short term memories and just dont realise how good they have had it in the last 11.5 years compared to the previous 13 Labor stuffed the economy up.

Re: Voting?
World interest rates were high then, it wasnt Labours doing, I remember the day UK interest rates rose 2 or 3 times in the same day with Norman Lamont in charge of the preceedings, these things happen. With the financial crisis in the USA, regarding overstretched mortgages, I would guess that interest rates will actually start to reduce next year, under which ever party is in charge. I havent voted yet, but will be doing so later.
