it may snow any day now. the weather is balancing around 0°ะก, and we've had some frost on the grass in the mornings already. you were right about the elections - but how early on did you make the prediction? anyway, i'm surprised of the americans talking about their restored dignity - as if nominating and electing bush two times in a row could be redeemed by choosing a young man with a black, firm ass over an old man with false teeth, grey hair, baggy skin and a habit of making ugly faces in public! if you name your nz candidates, i'd have a shot at it!
what to choose- they both sound pink! it's too late, but i don't know the results. i'd say - the man wins, the lady loses. although it could well be the other way around.
Though despite what that article says, it's yet to seen how much influence the Act Party will have, as Key will be talking to the more left-leaning Maori Party, who will have as many seats as the Act Party.
Probably, though Key is definitely to the right, hence his election victory speech is a bit more arrogant and with much banging on about individual aspirations...
