http://www.roymorgan.com/news/polls/polls.cfm February 2013 Finding No. 4864 Federal Poll: L-NP 56% (UP 4.5%) HAS WINNING LEAD OVER ALP 44% (DOWN 4.5%) AFTER FIRST WEEK OF PARLIAMENT IN 2013, BUT AUSTRALIAN SPORTS ‘DRUG SCANDAL’ DOMINATES THE HEADLINES 12 Feb 2013 Finding No. 4862 Unemployment Poll: NEW YEAR BEGINS WITH UNEMPLOYMENT UP 1.3% TO 10.9% WITH RECORD 2.4 MILLION AUSTRALIANS EITHER UNEMPLOYED OR UNDER-EMPLOYED 06 Feb 2013 So the polls clearly show that not only are the ALP lying to us ( YET AGAIN ) about the unemployment problem but also that come election time they are out on their collective ear....
It will be all downhill from here too, unless of course they put the Dudd back in, but even then the outcome isnt good for them. The very negative smear campaign they have run over the last few years will come back to bite them, as will all the lies and dirty deals.
Maybe of interest. It is rumoured around Canberra that the federal government is the driving force behind the sensationalising of the drugs in sport saga. This is to take the front page pressure of their dismal poll results and the MRRT disgrace. Gillard is only there right now because they have no time left. They have given up on Swan winning his seat. The back bench are panicking as they are all polling badly in their electorates.
Rudd will win his seat. He will take a macabre joy in watching the demolition. If he takes the reigns now, they will still lose, but maybe not as badly. He hasn't got the number, plus if they are decimated he will be able to rebuild the party how he would like, without too much opposition.
