Someone had to...

I don't care if you can't vote, I want a flamewar people.

Apologies to non-Australian members.

i only voted labor because you gave me no greens option.

Fair point, but after much agonizing I decided to go for the Lab/Lib dichotomy, since there's no chance of Bob Brown being Prime Minister (and no one likes the fishing party anyway).

Oh, and why Labor anyway?

I like KRudd better, but anyway.

I don't really like Abbot ... at all.

And yay! Atheist!

Well, there's no point having money. It's got to be used.

Money is simply an abstraction. Debt is not necessarily bad, it just has negative connotations. As is apparent, being in debt is not really limiting our economy.

By the way, do you know how much debt we're in?

What do you think about Abbott's focus on "the boats"?

I think it's being blown out of proportion, why is it on the same level as "debt paying" and "ending the waste" and "stopping the new taxes" in the Liberal/National agenda?

A very negative campaign this year...

They're bad, and this is why. We're not good, but at least we're not that bad.

i'm voting to keep abbott out of power, not really to get anyone in. he's a bit scary. too conservative.

I heard on the 7pm project that it's normally the young that vote left (Labor) and old that vote right (Liberal). That's been the trend for a while now.

The scary thing is that this time next week either Tony Abbott or Julia Gillard will be (almost) guaranteed Prime Ministership.

If you want to get out of debt quicker and not inadvertently raise the price of everything then tax religion not mining.
Surely the richest organisations in the world wouldn't mind forking up a few mesly dollars.
Plus I would prefer to get my thumbs cut off then to choose between such unbelievably stupid and ridiculous candidates.

The problem with that is Australia ranks among the least religious nations, and churches are not the money spinning powerhouses of the US.

Looks like a hung parliament, with Greens and the 4 independants holding the balance of power.

Double dissolution here we come.

HUNG parliament ... heh heh heh

No, lynched.

I'm hung like the Australian parliament.

I want Lib/Nat...cause abbot has retarded ears to make me giggle

not a retarded a Gillard's. And she's a filthy ranga - like dav

Still no PM.

Two weeks...

Stupid politicians making the country absolutely implode without a government.

I should become an anarchist. We're doing fine.
