who's your local member then?


Pat Farmer for Macarthur, which is definitely no longer a bellweather
seat. He is still squarking about how workchoices is good.

It is knife edge but drawing further his way. Unfortunately, we do not
have the bob brown bushwalker effect where all the postal votes are
buchwalkers, so his margin is growing

Seriously, if the rodent had been serious about fixing the
Murray-Darling water fisco and really started taken action, I would have
had to think seriously about voting for a bit of self interest; the
grandfather's farm is going to be lost if this situation continues much
longer.

They are not even getting the piddle we are getting each day in Sydney.
Their last "rain" was in May when they sowed all the wheat and oats they
could afford. Now, it is just a pick for the cattle and sheep. So much
for all the work my grandfather put into solving the national food
shortages post WWII.

we got mike kelly, which of course only underlines eden-monaro's status as a
"bell-wether" seat, thus making elections hopelessly exciting. (i only ever
lived in safe seats before, where you can't escape the feeling that as a
voter, one is wasting one's time).


What is that saying about pollies and underwear? change often {:-).
