Interesting election alright.
Random thoughts and opinions:
felt a bit sorry for Hone.While he did saddle up with ompa lompa and lila haare (sp?) and backed the wrong horse,I do think he was one of the few who really did want to improve the lot of his people.
lila haare has lost all credibility because she saddled up with ompa lompa as well.
bit of a dark horse imo.
ompa lompa-wave good bye at the airport mate your out of here (one can hope.)tried to de stabalise the election and the government with lots of red herrings and lots of money.Guess it goes to prove kiwis arent as stoopid as he hoped.
Got more respect for the green party though.kept their nose clean and stuck to their platform-didnt get caught up in the general bs and mud slinging.
Metiria Turei-very impressed with her-seems very nice and articulate knew her party hadnt done great but fronted up to the media and presented herself well.unlike lila haare who had that quiet pissed off look and wouldnt say anything at the time.
Labour party-labour who?
