Shades of Hillary v Trump as TV pundits left reeling l NeilMcMahon

Did your HD TV set cover the indeterminate hue of ashen?

The vanquished, Bill Shorten, had hung off conceding but eventually did, and delivered a graceful, honourable concession that included his resignation as leader. He called for national unity.The speeches - the belting emotional weight that every election night carries with it - came at the end of an evening that began with a Nine exit poll predicting an even bigger Labor win than recent polls had predicted.

Channel Nine, famed for past tasteful gimmicks that have variously crushed and shredded losing contenders, served up a giant red stiletto - and the woman who inspired it, Julie Bishop. Ten brought us political pixie Christopher Pyne, who was dared by another panellist to sing an ABBA song within minutes of kick off.He called it for the Coalition around 9.30pm. Whatever the rest of the count showed, the only possible options were a Morrison government, in minority or majority.

NeilMcMahon Especially those idiots on channel 9 who thought shorten would win even before polling closed. Completely out of touch with society if you think that weasel had a chance.

NeilMcMahon More like the media tried to tell us how to vote and we didn't listen.

NeilMcMahon The trouble with you Neil McMahon & 98% of your colleagues at smh, you all did the big pile on the coalition to the point your petticoats were showing. The bias was palpable & you convinced yourselves you were right. In other words you believed your own bs.

NeilMcMahon I thought BS talked like Trump but unlike Trump couldn't deliver

NeilMcMahon Cultural cringe still exists in Australia. Surely we don't need to compare everything to the US or UK.

NeilMcMahon The only comparison is that the media got it wrong.

NeilMcMahon Shy Tories (and PHON and AUP supporters).

Federal Election 2019: Scott Morrison warns Australians against Labor switchThe Prime Minister attacked Labor over its policy agenda and promised voters 'I will burn for you every day' if re-elected. And nine months ago one M B Turnbull argued now was not the time to switch to a happy clapping gay hating human rights denying evangelical arsehole, and yet here we are. You’re right. It should have been done much earlier. That way ScuMo and his minions wouldn’t have been the total fuck up that they have been ScottMorrisonMP When is the time to change to Labor PM?

Vote 2019: Polls point to narrow Labor election winAustralia is expected to get its sixth prime minister in six years, with opinion polls pointing to a narrow victory for Bill Shorten's Labor team in today's federal election. FINALLY ending both the longest election campaign in Aust history and the revolving door PMship. What idiots are voting for Bill? He's an economic disaster waiting to happen. If we deny the existence of scomo, will he really go away the same way as climate change deniers believe climate change doesn’t exist? 🤔
