This new Roy MorganPoll will put the acid on Key as the race tightens. No one has told Centrebet apparently, their odds have gone out even further on Helen Clark. $4.50 is looking great "investing" if you believe the Roy Morgan's sometimes erratic polling. Act on 3.5%! That's where National support is going. Nothing says spine like wheeling Sir Roger Douglas into lead the Tory cabinet. But their block...

No one saw this coming… except we did. Now frankly the Family Party have utterly failed to impress me as anything other than a party of an extreme fundy loons who let their personal belief system supersede all other considerations and I would no more vote for them that I would any other extremist religious group. However [...]

Centrebet has firmed up slightly on a National-led government. There will be a lot of very confident Nat money coming in for John Key right now. I would expect that to move out when Clark wins those head-to-head debates. I expect she will wipe the floor with him and that Labour will look more competitive at that point. That is my expectation at least. On the 15th of September - three days after the...

With a parliamentary crest, but without an authorisation statement, Helen is sending out her propaganda. I have resided for over six months at my current address in the Mt Albert electorate (Helen Clark is the local MP) and for six months have received nothing from her. And today was the first piece of party political mail through the letterbox since the announcement of the election date. It is 32...

The Herald reports: After campaigning in Otara on Saturday, Helen Clark told the crowd at the Avondale market yesterday to reject, and laugh at National’s tax policy - regardless of the size of cuts. Good to see she is keeping an open mind. The tax cuts are bad and evil regardless of how big they are or [...]
