One day in November
Just want to lay this one down good and early: John Howard will romp it in this November. Why? The question is really, rather, why won't he lose? Simple: the two issues which the commentariat and their political wing, the ALP, have decided are the key issues - climate change (pffft!) and industrial relations.
Climate change is the ultimate 'doctor's wives' issue, and has no significant electoral traction. As for IR, did I miss something? The laws came in, the sky didn't fall in, the economy ignited its second-stage boosters and went into orbit. Then when the election appeared over the horizon, we're suddenly in the ALP's off-Broadway tryout of Les Miserables. ALP pollster Rod Cameron summed it up, saying that the unions who will supposedly win it for Rudd are:
"very unpopular and they are not part of most people's lives - The majority of voters are anti-union and they don't want the unions back in their lives."
