		<description>A pity you have not focussed on Mallard&#039;s hanging Parker out to dry comment today - naive and inexperienced Minister or words to this effect.  Much more interesting than a rogue poll result..........</description>

		<description>Ben I reckon a Nat/Maori government could be a big and pleasant surprise for a lot of the citizens.

It appears that JK and some of the other senior Nats have good solid relationships with  TT and PS and others.

They might between them break the  mould and produce a very constructive and productive relationship that results in real progress for the Maoris and PIs in the social and business developemnt areas and a spin off for all especially we freedom fighters.

Only time will tell</description>

		<description>I can think of worse governments than a National-Maori coalition. A National-Labour coalition, for instance. Which is actually possible, since they&#039;re the two most closely aligned parties.</description>

		<description>freethinker

IMHO they will drop and stay in the low 30s The Greens and NZ1 will be the beneficaries Most of the Socialist defect to the Nats has already happened I would think.  Unless the nats really drop the ball they should stay in the mid 40s and the Maori Party will hold the balance of power not just in 08 but in future elections unless the maori seats are abolished.


Better get used to a Maori Party run government folks because thats whats it gonna be</description>

		<description>The most significant aspect of the Roy Morgan poll was a media comment that the reduction in Labours share was attributed to the recent police faux pas with Tuehoe. This indicates that those polled perceive the Police as politicised whihc is a very bad look for Police &amp; polly&#039;s and as IV2 points out the conyism issues aren&#039;t reflected in that poll, the next poll could be very interesting - anyone taking bets on if Labour will duck under 30%?</description>

		<description>Ben,
lovely comment.
But seriously; yesterday&#039;s Waikato Times reported that a substantial percentage of people are against the Horiculture &quot;Why-Cut-Oar&quot; pronunciation of our region.  I think that was significant, and gave me great hope as I have been despairing of another three years of the barren harridans.</description>

		<description>Wednesday seems like a good day to me. Also known as &#039;Hump Day&#039; because you&#039;re over the hump and coming down the other side. Admittedly when my girlfriend first told me this I refused to accept her interpretation, and Wednesday became a very good day indeed.</description>

Who’s 15? Please Bevan, keep your fantasies to yourself.

Well before robinsod was kicked from here he constantly stated that he was 15. So unless he was performing the usual Left wing response of lieing through his teeth, then he is.</description>

That&#039;s actually the best way to force commies to face up to reality- leave them to sink in their own shit...</description>

		<description>For those who can&#039;t countenance the thought of following a link to The Standard, here are Tane&#039;s thoughts:

&quot;I can’t say I agree with his analysis, as I haven’t seen anything to suggest the reworking of the Terrorism Suppression Act (which both major parties voted for) has caused anyone to doubt Helen Clark’s ‘ability to protect New Zealanders from the scourge of terrorism’. This sounds like an analysis written by an Australian with little understanding of domestic issues in New Zealand (they still insist on referring to National as ‘the Nationals’).

To my mind the fact that this result is so far out of whack with other recent polls suggests it’s a rogue, but we’ll have to wait for the next few polls to see if this is the case. Either way, it will certainly give Labour pause for thought and will give NZ First a welcome glimmer of hope.&quot;

However, knowing that Tane is always interested in fairness and balance, here is a contrary opinion:

&quot;This latest Morgan Poll on voting intention was conducted with a New Zealand-wide cross-section of 808 electors between October 29 — November 11, 2007. &quot;

Now those dates take on added significance. The polling period ended on Sunday November 11th. And as we all know, the New Zealand Herald climbed into the government on Monday 12 November - a development that is not captured in this poll! Labour&#039;s &quot;outing&quot; by the Herald for their attack on democracy, John Boscawen&#039;s march in Auckland, and the reporting back of the EFB and second reading debate will all feature in the next Roy Morgan poll. Oh yes, so will the release of the SSC report into the Madeleine Setchell affair, the revelation of cronyism in the Environment Ministry, and the survey that shows that 57% of Kiwis think that the government has too much control over their lives!! No Minister&#039;s by-line, &quot;Roy Morgan Kneecaps Clark&quot; pretty much says it all! To paraphrase the old song - &quot;How low can they go?&quot;&quot;

The source for that opinion is, of course, impeccable!!!

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;tane goes out drinking with 15 year old boys? Ewwwwwwww.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, if I&#039;m ever unlucky enough to be in the same room with Mr. Sod, anything to shut him up as soon as humanly possible.  An alcoholic stupor would work for me.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;So…John Key’s dead animal hat. Fashion Faux Pas or Climate appropriate?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

A little from column A, and a lot from column B?  Never a good look when it looks like you shoved a stick of dynamite up a possum&#039;s arse, then put the remains on your head... but the real question is: Does his bum look big in all that extreme cold weather gear? :)  

&lt;blockquote&gt;But I am snickering that the left whiners have stopped mentioning Labours poll recovery…..&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, if I took polls at all seriously I&#039;d be getting my &lt;i&gt;schadenfreude&lt;/i&gt; on, right about now.  Still, I&#039;m looking forward to Jordan&#039;s Pollyanna-on-crack spin, which is always amusing.  But I guess that&#039;s what happens when you&#039;re on a steady diet of poll-driven fruitcake.</description>
