707235 2008-09-23 22:25:00 when National wins the election? (Because they will win, pretty much a fait accompli.)

I agree they will win, it is a question of by how much and would it be enough to do it alone.

If the morons that waste a vote on the minor parties would concentrate on the two major parties voting then it would be fair to say that the Nats would run it alone without the pathetic Winstones, Anderton, Greens and Rodney's of this world.

707236 2008-09-24 00:09:00 National won't win. John Key put his big foot in it again, :groan: , they keep misplacing private papers, members keep letting out info about what they're going to do before Key gets a chance to announce anything. Talk about lies, mismanagement and wannabees.

I stopped voting National when Muldoon left, voted Green once to get Jeannette Fitzimons in, won't do that again after one of her mob brought in the ridiculous non-smacking rule, won't vote Act as Roger Douglas is on their team - creep!, I'm not a Maori so can't vote for them, I love Winston regardless of his latest skullduggery, so will vote Labour and pick NZ First as party vote.

707237 2008-09-24 14:19:00 Seems everyone here thinks its between 2 parties only.
Go on, be different, vote for another one altogether.

I thought the only reason there was other parties was to keep things PC?

Go on, be different, vote for another one altogether.My thinking exactly
As I said in a previous post a few months back, NZ'ers will vote for one party (say Labour), till that party annoys them, then switch to the other (National)... then vice versa after the other party has annoyed them

High taxes
Parents as criminals
Criminals on ACC

A vote for Labour is a vote for Winston.

33000 leaving for Aussie can't be wrong

A vote for any minor party takes a vote away from the government and is, in effect, a vote for the opposition. It is against the odds, in most cases, that there will be enough votes for any minor party to have any affect on that party obtaining a seat. So the vote is a wasted vote.:illogical

I can easily fill all the portfolio's in Parliament with the old codgers on this forum - and they would make much better politicians. Yesssss, Metla as PM (and I promise we won't roll you Metla, we'll just feed you more beer and pies so you'll get a heart attack sooner).

Governments lose them.
(when they have seriously pissed off enough voters)
Hopefully New Zealand is now at that happy stage.
Will NZ be better under a National Government -
Probably, it would be hard pressed to be worse than Helen and comrades
