Election

You could call it ‘sport’ I guess, like watching a 

match where the team game is played to rules 

you think you understand - only they’ll say it is 

entertainment, thus a predilection as such has 

little or no relevance politically; - its an election 

for heavens sake, so why do you want it to be 

a game with its ‘score’ as a justification for an 

‘appropriateness’ rationale that makes sense

Okay, it’s Queensland, and in this poll Gollum 

and 35 LNP aspirants got a*sed; you’d like to 

ask why, hinting at whether they were actually 

‘in’ or ‘out’ would’ve made clarity to the ‘fest’, 

yet all you get is ‘preferences’ from experts in 

the bleachers who only see wood in trees 

None-the-less I guess we’ll still have 3 years 

to regret umpiring in this dismissive match …
