It's not going to change anyone's vote at this late stage, and it has a look of desperation about it. Best to remember that all WA voters know about it, have made their judgements, and will vote accordingly without any further assistance. Looking desperate loses votes, as Howard demonstrated so ably last year. Carpenter has stuffed up by dragging out the Buswell stuff again.

You are hardly in a place to accuse others of dishonesty. I've said it before that you are the Brian Burke of the WA Liberal Party.<br /><br />Labor will be returned on Saturday and you know it, we can tell in your words.

Come on Crikey, enough of NCB.
I’ve read enough of his sleazy bull manure.
Time for a change.
Bring in a fresh face, someone like Dr Peter van Onselen, who certainly is raising his profile here in the West and also on Sky News.
I’m sure Peter could provide quality commentary that myself and the rest of your subscribers would enjoy.

The affair smells of nothing more then sour grapes, as does NCB's column.<br /><br />change the record<br /><br />at least Crikey has started acknowleding NCB's vested interests in the WA election, so those not familiar with his dealings with the Corruption and Crime Commission can at least assess his bias.

change the record

at least Crikey has started acknowleding NCB’s vested interests in the WA election, so those not familiar with his dealings with the Corruption and Crime Commission can at least assess his bias.
