Liberals remain in power
Just got home late. Had to update this quickly. Well, I didn't have to but I am.John Howard and the Liberals have won government with, amazingly, a 3.3% swing. That was unexpected. Related, this story suggests Coalition government may get control of the senate as well as the House of Representatives through Family First. I wouldn't be SO sure Family First is going to follow the Liberals blindly. I certainly hope not.
At a dinner tonight I got talking about the election with some friends. More to the point, who we voted for. That was fun...
On a completely different note, I noticed this story as well. The AIDS virus was manufactured for biological warfare, claims Wangari Maathai, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Alright, that's all I have time for. Must sleep. I'm part of the way through watching the 2nd US Presidential debate online. Will have something to say about that when I'm done. I'm only about a quarter of the way through it at this point, but Kerry seems to be doing better, for me.
