Looking back at the past three months in politics and my previous post about the topic, I’d have to say pretty much only one of my last observations proved somewhat correct; that is politics would be nastier.
Almost everything else, well that went out the window. I still stand by observation/thought number 6 – Tony Abbott is still being Mr Negative. If nothing explodes within Labour for the next few months, there are likely to be some doubts about the Opposition Leader’s credentials to be an alternative PM.
But then Labour, being Labour one can never tell.
Seriously how does a party that ended 2011 with a carbon tax through, on the cusp of getting the MRT passed and with Peter Slipper’s defection to become the new Speaker of the Lower House squander all of those advantages that easily?
Best case scenario that I would prefer; Abbott gets toppled, Turnbull takes over. Election in 2013 – Libs win. Period.
Though with the coming semester and the upcoming release of ME3 I don’t think I’ll be paying all that much attention to politics – especially if it proves to be the farce that it has been throughout the past month.
