Go Bob Go!

Only two things could make a better birthday present that the poll showing with a 7% lead.

One involves Eva Longoria (from Desperate Housewives) and a tropical island resort.

The other is a poll confirming that will lose Tauranga.

The Herald on Sunday have come to the party for the latter, with a poll showing Bob Clarkson has extended his lead over Winston Peters from 8% to 11%!

Peters losing Tauranga is essential to good Government in NZ, whether National or Labour-led. You see even if NZ First make 5%, they will be missing the safety net of an electoral seat. And as Don Brash says, NZ First can be very unpredictable. But without Tauranga they will know that if they up by playing stupid (as they did in 1998) they will then be wiped out at the next election.

Now I just have to wait and see if my third birthday wish comes true 🙂
