All the labor signs have a very vey small ALP logo, I had to look very carefully, I thought they must all be independents.

Is the labor bran really on the nose in Canberra?

With such a huge public service Labor vote and then the beautiful people voting Green/labor I would have thought you should be proud to be a Labor candidate here.

I would have thought it was the opposite, I have spoken with a number of people who dislike the government but will vote Labor again due to the woeful lack of alternatives.

Still, it is rather odd that the Labor candidates seem to want to disassociate themselves with the Labor brand, while the Libs, who certainly don’t have much of a chance given the feds wanting to make drastic cuts to the APS (so does Labor, but we don’t mention that…) seem to emblazon their logo over everything.

I like the targeted marketing approach, Matthew Watts, a rather geeky looking Lib candidate, has a poster in the window of Dees Comics in Belco. Looks like a regular.

The faces are so big and the names are so small, and Labor candidates seem to use any colour but official ALP colours (the ALP candidates in Ginninderra seem to like orange).

All we need is big coloured boxes with big faces on our ballot sheets.

The first part of this sounds just like Doctor Seuss!

With their faces so big and their names oh so small,
there was no-one to vote for, no, no-one at all.
Some they used orange and some they used black;
I’d much rather cast votes for The Cat in the Hat.

i sat there with sally,
we sat there, we two,
and we voted for no-one
– especially not you.

actually, thing one and thing two would do a grand job in the corridors of power, bumping their kites.

They always remind me of those images of dictators you see in the movies… is it a problem that our politicians model their advertising on Saddam Hussein’s?

Is it just me, or are those posters notable for the lack of any mention of the party for which the person’s standing?

It’d be fun to label them all Pirate Party. 🙂

The Indian in Belco . Is his last name for real.
