Palmer's PUP

[Rorschach]

1140 votes remaining.... predicted win Palmer by approx 150.

How does one predict something so close?

Anyone in such a close result would call for a recount. (If they lost)

If Clive wins I expect he will be a bad local member and a bad representative in the house.
But time will tell.

On exactly what do you base your 'expectations?'

Some more up-to-date detail here. Palmer to win by 45, and there will certainly be a recount. Think I'll try to be involved in that when it happens.

oh dear.... from a scrutineer in the room... you think it really matters whether at 1510 it was 150 and at 1534 you think it is 45? get a life pedant. Oh and BTW your link was at 1407.... hardly a more up to date.

There will be a recount, it's been too messy for any other result.

I truly hope that Clive loses by 10 votes. He's going to challenge anyway. But the fact that he lost by a hair's breadth would make it so much more succulent.

Palmer up by 98.

Doesn't really matter by how many votes, one way or the other, what is great is that Clive will earn a kick in the arse and, hopefully, realise that money isn't everything and definitely doesn't make you popular in politics! Either way he has "lost", poor thing.

The mans a raving lunatic, I still cant get over him calling Murdochs wife a Chinese spy.

Equally amusing is his rather dramatic greying overnight.

One day his hair was Elvis black... the next...back to silver grey.

I guess he had the colour stripped from his hair in time for his campaign, knowing the media and public would laugh at it.



...Ok, this image is a couple of years old, but noone greys that dramatically within a couple of years.

Correction.... that would be Keating Black.

He looks like an obese Paul Keating in that photo doesn’t he.

Correction. EX-wife. She is currently suing Rupe.

People who get old and grey and dye their hair black look ridiculous! Fat people who do so, double stupid. More chins than the Chinese phonebook! This bloke has a young wife, too, doesn't he?

I think it likely that when that photo was taken his real hair colour was grey, but he did the black dye. I've met the bloke a couple of times now, and there are no black roots at the scalp end of the greys. He's not tall, but he is bloody fat.

Yes, he has a younger, very attractive, very pregnant, very pleasant, unassuming Wife of European origin. They met after each lost their first spouse to cancer.
