600866 2007-10-12 08:10:00 How on earth could anyone participate in this poll except on the basis of supreme ignorance or blind loyalty to one party or another? None of the parties have displayed their wares yet in the form of coherent policy.

National tried and failed to do so with three policies last week, all of which were shots unerringly aimed at their own feet and subsequently withdrawn. Some wag suggested the Nats were engaged in policy release by Tourette's Syndrome, which was probably unkind but true.

I suggest you might think of a poll (if you have to) some time in the latter third of 2008... Personally I am in the camp that says a plague on all polls on this site, but then that is just a personal view you understand.

Thanks for your comments:thumbs:

Yeah agree.
They're all idiots in one aspect or another.
The current crop in power aren't doing us any favours but I wouldn't necessarily say any of the other parties offer a complete solution either. I certainly won't be voting for the current crop.

Thanks for the ignorant innuendo! How can you peg me into supreme ignorance or blind loyalty just because I've taken part in a poll....

After all, you would be supremely ignorant if you believe all the campaign promises from the parties leading up to the election And basing your vote purely on political drivel prior to the elections.

I use my Ouija board! It's never been wrong in predicting who I'm going to vote for...

Where do they find these people? From the same place they found Jenny Shipley?

A frightening thought isn't it?

Fair enough on all points except the first! Nothing personal intended in my first para - I was criticising the timing of the poll, not the people who participate!

Yes.

Why would I discuss who I plan to vote for if I couldn't vote? :confused:

Or is there a less than friendly message behind your post?

600873 2007-10-12 22:42:00 The Mad Hatter's Tea Party, since although they appear to have little electoral success on the night, performance after the polls indicates that for the last 50 years at least they have been hard at work in office on both sides of the house and the edges too. R2x1 (4628)
600874 2007-10-13 04:04:00 Yes I know another poll. Surpised by the results of my "climate change caused
by man" poll, Anyway it's time for this poll.

I will wait until the election comes up.

Need to know the policy of the said party.

At the moment I am not sure.

Just possibly it may be NZFirst for Winston Peters,

And who voted in the council, local body elections?

I did.

Have a vote anyway.

If you do not vote then you will get what you deserve.
