The media is largely to blame for whipping up such a frenzy, causing so many former Liberal voters to say they will now vote against Mr Howard.
Taxes are down, interest rates are down, there's more money in our pockets.
Petrol is up through no fault of John Howard, but, of course, he is to blame. I am amazed at the selfish, unreasonable attitudes of so many people. They should be ashamed of themselves for being so stupid. Thirteen years of Labor rule brought disaster and should not be so easily forgotten. However, foolish people have short memories and they can ruin anything good if there are enough of them.
