Not sure why this has to be done twice.
My other question is posed towards those supporting Matt over Bore. What legitimate reasons do you justify with other that personal friendship with Matt?
Bore, in spite of occasional flashes of independence, is nothing if not a loyal warrior for the Labor agenda. Matt is increasingly similar to the Labor ideology sadly, but I think he would definitely lean more toward the center and pragmatic if he were elected to the Senate. My hope is, at least, Matt sees the folly in many of the ideas that have been recently pushed on some confused idea of a mandate.
I'm almost positive that I am, on any number of issues, to matt's right.
Also I resent the implication that I'm a loyal follower of the "labor agenda" (whatever the hell that means, I assume TNF). It's just not born out by the facts. I'm proud to be in the same party as TNF but I almost certainly vote more often with lumine than him.
For instance, I voted against my party to confirm torie to the supreme court and simfan to be gm. In the senate at the moment I've done a large amount of work on a bill reforming public sector strike law, a move bitterly opposed by tnf. At one point during the furore over energy adam described me as being like a 6th right winger. I joined with cync against close friends in the party like SWE and nix and talleyrand and tnf by opposing the group marriage law. I was the
deciding vote against the nationalisation of power and transport just a few months ago. I supported president duke's rewrite of the
public means public act, against griffin and tnf.
And, seriously, I could go on for paragraphs in a similar vein.
