Election 2010 - V Day Minus 4! - Another Debate....

It would seem that another election debate is on its way.  Oh well....

Hooray! Another debate forthcoming
Or, at least, its on the cards.
More fuel for pencil and cartoonist skill,
More fun for cranky, part-time, bards.

Will we suffer just thirty minutes,
Or will we cop an hour?
Will it be a public hall discussion,
Or an economic punch-up, each the other to devour?

Bring it on folks, get it under way,
But be assured 'tis we, who have the final say!

The 2010 Election - Week 1

This is the week that was!

A discourse on population became an immigration hoax,
While adding to the fear campaign over desperate folk in boats!
We heard about a deficit and the chance of growing debt,
Yet not too much of the GFC, or that it hasn't hit us, yet.
One Leader wants the NBN with web speed rated tops,
And the other will have a telephone, with calls through dear old POTS.

So, the first week ends without much ticker;
We're looking forward, but the fog is thicker.
Perhaps I'll go and just follow twitter!
