Election is coming up tomorrow and its predicted national will win by a landslide. Seems the majority of small minded idiotsn here want regime for the sake of regime change after labor's 3 terms. Nevermind that national polices are simply copies of labor ones adapted for the benefit of the rich except for the "fight the finacial crisis by borrowing from overseas" plan which sounds a little wonky. National also seem to think global warming isn't an issue probably because our biggest industry produces so much methane(3x as bad for the ozone layer as CO2) that we can't touch the kyoto protocol without paying large fines. Labor brought in our interest free student loans. Labor kept things on track for the last 3 terms. Why would anyone vote National? Oh wait tax cuts for the rich so our air polluting farmer assholes out in the country can have more cash. Country air is fucking disgusting. It reeks everywhere of animal shit. I could almost go vegan.

It looks like only maoris are going to get a break. Supposedly whoever the Maori party chooses to work with will be our next leaders. The Maori party is shit. They're always guaranteed seats and they work exclusively for a racial minority. This country can't talk about equality if Maoris get more rights than everyone else and have their own exclusive party.

I'm happy with the result of the American election. Though I prefered McCain to Obama at least this result proves Americans aren't all a bunch of racist idiots. Obama seems to have a good team including Joe Bidden.
The downside is Obama fans are as bad as macfags who can't seem to shut the fuck up and they act like they're part of some religous cult. Having them gloat for a while must be killing anyone who has to live anywhere near them. And those of us who occasionally stumble over their faggotry while innocently browsing the net.

Remember to vote labor at tomorrow's election guys.

9th November update

National won. At least the Labor canidate in my area got enough votes that he can still represent us even though the national canidate got the majority by quite a large portion. The Maori party did surprsingly badly not that I could care less. I'd rather the greens were the minority party anyway. Lets just hope our money speculating leader dosen't undo labor's good work and make us any worse off as we go through this financial crisis thats barely hit us yet.
Whats incredibly ironic is that John Key's background as a someone who grew up in state housing is what helped him win. And state housing was a labor iniative. Its also quite funny that Key had the same campaign "time for change" slogan as Obama. Though National is the nz equivalent of the republicans and Labor the democrats.
Considering how popular Obama is its possible some of national's voters thought they were voting for him. Taking into account how stupid most people are.

Idiotic National supporters have been saying they voted for national so there would be some change. Still no word on what the changes are going to be. Still no ideas on what was wrong with labor. Helen Clark was one of the strongest prime ministers we ever had. I hope John Key can come close to her record. Maybe he'll turn out to be a good guy(as much of a good guy as a politican can be anyway).
Sorry to see you go Mrs Clark. Thankyou for 9 good years.
Good luck to all you other kiwis on surviving the next few.
