...the Australian Federal Election is on tomorrow.
No, I wasn't living under a rock for last month or so. I was aware the election was on. But, just didn't realise it is on tomorrow.
It has been interesting...both major parties has been releasing "me too" policies. Liberal has been focusing on how the interest rate is going to go up and unions are going to ruin the country if labor comes to power. Labor is focusing on AWA. I am getting really tired of listening to this. Nobody seems to want to tell voting public what their policies are and what they stand for.
Last couple of elections Liberals played the Migration and National Security cards. This election they have been put away. Liberal is trying hard to convince the voters of their green credentials. It's bit of a lost cause, considering John Howard used to deny global warming is real.
One funny thing is, I totally forgot about Democrats. I literally forgot them as a political party. It's sad really, I used to respect them and their views before they drowned and imploded due to infighting.
Well I better go find out where is the nearest polling booth is.

You forgot about The Australian Democrats you say?
You're not alone I would dare conjecture. In fact, I'd think it's fair to say that the Democrats have themselves forgoten that they're a political party given the marked lack of visibility they've had in this campaign compared to other minor parties.
Even Dr Karl is more exposed than the Democrats at the moment, with his platform of fighting climate change, and that's saying something for a party with such a seemingly focused target.
