At least Rudd is gone, for now at least

I might commit to that lease car now.

Get a Holden. They'll become a collectors car in the near future.

 

[Clawhammer]

Falcons already are.

What went wrong with the pollsters? They predicted a whitewash...wasn't anything like that?
were they fudging? did everyone lie to the pollsters?

3million pre votes, you might wake up in the morning surprised. People vote early when they are pissed off

Who the turtle is the creepy guy on Rudd's left?
Looks like he was either pissed, or letting out silent ones throughout the speech.

Looks like Palmer might be in the senate to throw some poo poo around too!

Might be his son who he appointed as his key advisor for the campaign?

Likely result somewhere along the lines of 55ish to 90ish, a 35 seat majority... you don't call that a whitewash? I go back to 1996 and 1975 to find bigger majorities... looks like a reasonably white whitewash to me?

I think that Clive has won a house of Reps seat...and one of his party has won in the senate..Who could have seen that happening? No one south of the border that's for sure..

He has a huge following in qld, I'm surprised he didn't do better to be honest.

 

[col0016]

I'm sad that the liberals have such a big majority. Imagine how interesting it would be if Katter and Palmer helda balance of power haha.

They Won the seats (many only just)... not with the majority forecast by the pre-polling..

Meet your new Prime Minister: Agent Smith

It is such a shame Peter Costello is no longer in politics....

if he was still treasurer, we could honestly say that our country was being run by

Abbott and Costello

:lol:

 

[bordsilver]

You say that sarcastically but the average australian is actually retarded enough to think like that. People actually believe they will be better off under a liberal government but in reality we are all going to be worse off and thats exactly what the average australian deserves for being so f*ucking stupid and voting in liberal scum

Ignoring the Libs, name a noticeable welfare enhancing policy of the ALP over the past six years that did not involve a wealth redistribution by taking away natural property rights.

Bonus question: Name a pro-freedom of speech policy?
