I thought we might review the last week or so in politics, because, to me, it seems barking mad! Since when is Australian politics scandal-ridden and American politics anodyne! To recap, this week we had Alan Jones dying of shame, the recrudescence of the HSU saga, more Slipper mania and to top it all off, Margie Abbott's insistence that her husband is a nice guy (which is a strategy from the US, taken straight from the playbook of Anne Romney). Meanwhile the Americans had a debate which Romney (surely one of the most boring men in the world) actually won. What is going on? Gone are those sane days in which the US could boast Congressmen propositioning interns while us guys stuck with Peter Costello's dragon-slaying battle against the tax system...
