News in 2007: The Top Tens
One planet. 195 countries. 365 days. 8760 hours. 6,602,224,175 humans. 6000 wild tigers. Fewer than 40 Gilbert’s Potoroos. Is it possible to condense the life of planet earth in 2007 into just ten events? Not really, but that hasn’t stopped the some of the world’s leading news organisations and their readers from giving it a go. Here’s a quick guide to how 2007 will be remembered.
Waterwall to wall Labor and Howard’s backflip with pike
Only Labor can end the blame game, or so Kevin Rudd claimed during the campaign. He had to. He had to neutralise the threat of wall to wall Labor governments. John Howard had different priorities. He had to make the Labor state administrations look difficult. Like on water, writes Christian Kerr.
Kilgour: The class war is dead
The class war is dead - so is the wedge. On Saturday, plenty of Australians got out of bed and decided either they were keen to have a bunch of union thugs running the country, or that the Coalition campaign had been crap, writes Adam Kilgour.
Crikey Says: Crikey Says
Last week Crikey published research conducted by Liberal Party pollsters Crosby/Textor, research that paints a grim picture of the party’s electoral position. Today after receiving various legal threats from Crosby/Textor we will be removing that document from our website. However Crikey refuses, as Crosby/Textor have also demanded, to reveal the source of the document, nor will we be refraining from further commentary based on the findings of the research.
Never mind Nielsen, Crosby/Textor had the death sentence
Last week, Crikey published the full Crosby/Textor internal Liberal polling and analysis that the Murdoch tabloids were banging on about. It’s a pity Rupert’s finest didn’t seem to understand a word of it when it was delivered into their hot little hands.

Exit Howard: how the transition could occur
John Howard may have ignored the Crosby/Textor advice, but it seems that one of his few fearless backbenchers believes it makes sense, writes Christian Kerr.
Crosby/Textor: l’etat, il n’est pas you
“Rudd is now preferred PM, this being the most important influence on vote for many,” leaked Crosby Textor polling reproduced in full for the very first time in Crikey today warned the Prime Minister back in June, writes Christian Kerr.
Labor hires Howard campaigners
A State Labor Government has put Liberal Party pollsters and strategists Mark Textor and Lynton Crosby, two Howard allies despised by the ALP federally, on the public payroll as consultants.
Howard might still be the real thing
The Man in Black, Ian Kortlang, turned up on ABC Radio in Sydney yesterday discussing the Crosby/Textor leak. He classified leaks in four ways, writes Christian Kerr.
Studying the PM through the Crosby/Textor prism
Piers Akerman seems to suggest in his column today that perhaps John Howard should consider sacking his pollsters Crosby/Textor. He tries to refute what he claims are the five major points of the pollsters’ advice, writes Irfan Yusef.
