OK, there mat be validity to a whole bundle of this post but your opening shot across the bow is inaccurate.

The statement was that interest rates will be lower under the coalition than under labour.

This is misinformation you are propagating. As for the rest of it, yeah, sure. But you're being selective.

No GST? Well no GST in the term after being elected. He kept that promise and went to the polls the second time being open about the GST and was elected.

There is a lot of truth in your points here, but thee is also a lot of cloud cover.

Me too, especially the retrospective approach to defining which are and aren't.

You have to admit, there is a Keating like arrogance about him and his government.
