Campaigning for votes in Mana in Australia

Phil Quinn blogs:

Embattled Mana nominee Kris Faafoi has taken to Radio Australia to press his case.  Radio .

Is this poor guy getting the worst political advice since someone told Napoleon to invade Russia in winter?

First, they are in such a rush to shunt him into Mana, his backers have appointed his replacement in the 's office before he has even won the nomination.  Next, they send him to a [meet] the candidate's Q&A forum ill-prepared and underwhelming.  Now the global PR strategy:  ”Here's an idea, Kris:  the locals in Mana think you're a -by-nighter and a carpetbagger — do as many interviews with broadcasters as you can!”

have given a lot of poorly conceived advice to politicians over the years, but — by and large — I was intoxicated at the time.  What is their excuse?

Quinn's post has me trying to think of what was the worst advice I ever gave while intoxicated? Sadly, I can't recall 🙂
