no means no Abbott

It's clearly been a long campaign already for the Mad Monk.

Julia has at least had the chance to escape her minders and campaign as her 'real self', and it's a vast improvement.

No such luck for Tony. As his own daughter once famously said, he's a "lame, gay, churchy loser" (and doesn't her choice of language say heaps about her own upbringing?).

Only the most desperate conservative would vote for the real Tony Abbott, so he has to keep a tight lid on that side of himself and make sure that he only shows his campaign persona for the cameras.

It's inevitable though, that at times, his real thoughts and feelings are going to show through.

What sort of moron would attack his political opponent by using a well-known catch-cry related to rape and the abuse of women, with no apparent understanding of its sub-text? Maybe the same sort who gets a woman pregnant (or thinks he did) and then absconds and leaves her 'carrying the baby'.

This man is a moral midget, who has no empathy or understanding of the modern world, and would take us back 100 years if he gets the chance.

I'm not a fan of the current government, but I'll vote for anything that keeps Abbott away from political power.
