No, Howard replaced into in no way person-friendly with me and in no way gained my vote. yet i'm a B.A. with a politics substantial and think of roughly what i'm shown or informed. Howard replaced into quite fortunate in getting away with 3 'scare marketing campaign' election runs and tried it a fourth time by ability of attempting to terrify center-type Australia with photos of Union thugs costing jobs and prerequisites and his I.R. regulations conserving and reaping benefits workers, he in effortless terms used examples interior the mining industry and different aspects the place area or skills call for intense rewards, no longer finding at different aspects the place families were taken from 'particularly delicate' to unemployed and a 'welfare recipient' with a 'working mans' loan. some-you will do their interest for much less!! All in each and every of the voters had 'had sufficient' and with uncertainty approximately his retirement he purely "drove some extra nails interior the Coalition coffin."

Most people in the workforce don't like him because of Work Choices laws. The unemployment rate is at a 30 year low so there are a lot of people in the workforce. In the polls Kevin Rudd, the Labour leader (who went to a strip club in New York on tax-payers money) is winning.

Little Lying Johnny once attracted the votes of more than half the population but no more. His current farce in Sydney is yet another nail in his coffin. All hail the Chaser!
If you mean John Howard the actor, rather than the nasty little politician, he is very popular in Australia and much in demand.

You will than find that party is not popular but is doing his job.

Funny how so many people say they hate him, yet he has been the leader of the country for 10 years. He must have been doing something right !

Right now, if John Howard, Genital Thrush and Cold Spinach were running for Prime Minister, it would be a tough run home for Mr Spinach.
Edit: Oh OK - I see the thumbs down responses ... I can own up to a mistake ... It would be a LANDSLIDE for Mr Spinach!

Not with me!
And funny thing ~ despite the fact that about 45 per cent of the population voted for him at the last election, very few people say 'oh yes, I voted for him'!
Cheers :-)
