Blogmobile 2.0

A photo from inside the new larger Blogmobile 2.0. It is almost ten metres long so I am looking forward to trying to parallel park it!

Ferdinand

So who paid for this? Will it be counted as an election expense for Melissa?

[DPF: I announced our sponsors a few weeks ago. Pay attentions. Barrons and VnC Cocktails. And why on Earth would it be an election expense for anyone?]

Both David and Whale have gone to painful lengths to publicly endorsed Shearer. Therefore it should be counted as his election expense Ferdinand.

Your endorsement of any candidate should be accounted to their opposition’s costs, Kate. Now once again, who paid for the blogmobile and will it be counted as a National party expense?

And will TV3 and National Radio be included as a Labour expense?

Lets make this interesting. Left versus right. Lee (unfortunately) has fucked up. Shearer has the political charisma and relevance of all the failed made to order clarkist labour prototypes they have infested their party with since 1989.

Boscawen v Russel

The Nats should endorse John

I wasn’t talking to you sonny, and frankly if I were I would be obliged to speak slowly and in words of one syllable if I wished you to understand what I was saying. Now for the third time, who is paying to transport and accommodate one of National’s most prominent activists while they campaign on the party’s behalf in Mt Albert? I’m sure there is a reasonable answer and I don’t doubt that David will be willing to provide it.

Thank you for your prompt answer, David. I must admit I don’t follow your blog closely enough to realise you had posted on your sponsorship previously.

My point, albeit a slightly facetious one, about the expenses was based on the fact you are obviously going to be campaigning on behalf of National during the by election and as such should have your sponsership attributed to their campaign costs.

[DPF: So far I have been of most assistance to Labour and the Greens. They have both taken my advice and Labour have ended up with a candidate who will not bring in a List MP (worth a lot) and the Greens have gone with a co-leader. I don’t recall doing any campaigning for National. Oh yes I was interviewed on TV and radio criticising the National’s candidates comment 0- would be rather unfair to make National pay the cost of me criticising them don;t you think?]

“Your endorsement of any candidate should be accounted to their opposition’s costs, Kate”.

Gibberish. You talk gibberish Ferdinand. That doesn’t even make sense if it was an election expense.

David and Whaleoil had candidates from all sorts of political parties on their website during Blogmobile 1.0.

To suggest they are promoting any particular candidate or working for National in a paid capacity is ridiculous. Everyone knows its just an excuse for them to pull chicks with the VnC cocktails and promote themselves.

And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Ferdinand the bull.
Slow attention span? Look at DPF’s comment after your post at 6.49pm.
Could you be part of the rent-a-mob that shout and never listen?
Ferdinand is all bull. Bulls are not that intelligent, but can get violent.
Steers don’t have syll-a-balls.
Sigh, another troll making noises

Did I just spot Melissa Lee in the blogmobile – hiding from the media under the bench seat in the back?

DPF said: So far I have been of most assistance to Labour and the Greens. They have both taken my advice…

Russel Norman took my advice DPF (and that of some others in the Green Party). It just happened that it concurred with yours. I would never have said here that I would “pass your suggestion on” to Russel if I hadn’t already considered the strategy and decided it was imo a good one for the Greens.

[DPF: I was teasing, not being literal]

Nice truck. Wheres the pole for the strippers? Speaking of polls. Any been released on Mt Albert yet? Given the high % of Asians in Mt Albert I wonder whether M Lees comments resonated with them.

Ferdinand wins the Churlish Wanker Award for the day.

While we’re on the subject of election expenses, will the cost of bussing Wellington-based MP’s up to Auckland to campaign be declared?

Good old lump all the Asians in the same basket trick? There are probably 10 Indians in Mt Albert for every Korean. If we’re going to play the race card then I imagine those Indians may be rather annoyed their man Ravi was overlooked.
