The curfew tolls the knell of passing day

“I will spend every waking hour between now and six o’clock tomorrow night talking to the Australian people.”

And finally, after almost 12 months …

a great silence fell across a grateful land.

    Maybe it’s some strange form of filibuster?

    The more compassionate side of me wants to suggest that Johnny inhale mighty deep before carrying out that promise, so that he doesn’t expire from lack of oxygen after a few hours… but the more pragmatic side of me recalls what a pledge from Howard is worth, and can’t be bothered.

    HOLY F*****G C***!

    After 12 months of saying the Coalition could win, but also wanting to be wrong - could I be wrong?!!? After the devastating loss of 2004, could this be it?!!?

    I’m a teetotaller. But if the PM loses his seat, I’m cracking open a beer and swilling till I’m so pissed I can’t stand up. Back in ‘74 McMann was going to kick my father out of the country. Now I know how my Dad felt when Gough Whitlam won.

    After so long. Could this be it?!!?

    Can I be first to gloat — Howard’s Gone! Ahh, the sweet irony that it was an ex-ABC staffer who puts him to the sword. Poetic justice at it’s finest!!!

    However as I said some time ago, when Labor gets in, we make sure they deserve to be there, give em stick if they play smart arse.
    But, this is so sweet………
