Yeah - I've met and spoken to her few times - charming when you agree and totally irrational and intolerant of even minor disagreement.
She'd be scary if there were any risk of her actually having any power to wield against those who dare dispute anything she says.

I must say I've been surprised at the absence of damaging leaks coming from the out-of-favour Labor heavyweights who quit when KRudd staged his coup. I just thought there might have been a bit of sabotage going on but so far none that I can see.

yes I have met her before face to face at a function. She was a right old b.i.t.c.h and question her on one of her policys and she stuck her nose up and stormed off saying" I don't need to explain anything to you on the policies of the Greens" Was quite funny :D

Thoughts about tonys bribes for higher class mothers. Potential to have $75,000 in maternity pay plus super funded by a 1.5% excise on big business for 6 months. Smells like a labor plan in my opinion.

Oh dear:

A LIBERAL candidate has admitted he is "not across" his party's direct action policy on climate change, despite his party declaring it one of the key issues of the coming election.

Liberal candidate for Wakefield Tom Zorich was challenged in a Sky News debate last night to explain the policy, which would replace Labor's emissions trading scheme if it were abolished.

"Look, I'm not across all those issues," Mr Zorich said.

"As a candidate, and a businessman, I'm not across everything.

"I haven't got an answer for you."

He's been too busy with AFL reserves in his role on SANFL commission, perhaps?

I was there for that last night. It was one of two moments where he didn't have an answer. Champion came out well in front in the debate stakes. Tom kept referring to his time at the CDFC, authenticating his local attributes, and that was greeted with much derision.

Joe Hockey on Quanda is disappointing. More policy and less question dodging and attacking labour please Joe.

Hockey was exposed on Lateline's ABC Fact Check segment tonight.

Hockey smashed Bowen on Q&A last night. Mind you, my Burmese cat could take it up to the work experience treasurer so it's no big deal.

Labor has called on Tony Abbott to ditch a Liberal candidate whose personal website contained lewd and sexist content.

Kevin Baker, who is contesting former minister Greg Combet's NSW seat of Charlton, has been forced to shut down his "Mini-Mods" forum site for car enthusiasts.

The site contained references to incest, domestic violence, racism and child abuse.
