Libs show they've learnt nothing from Leaflet-Gate

Imagine saying this to a room full of journos:
As the Liberals drowned their sorrows on Saturday night, one former senior Liberal adviser blamed the result on “the f—ing Chinese”, an apparent reference to Asian voters in Bennelong turning against Mr Howard.
If that was the case in the end, I wonder why?
If this is the calibre of mind that ran the election - not to mention the Government - then we were even worse off than previously thought and you can bet that there will be hidden, lingering piles of shit to clean up that no one ever dreamt of. Stuff you, we’re through with you and your little dog too.

I don’t know if you saw George Megalogenis on ‘The Insiders’ but he said that up to Thursday tracking polls had Howard winning Bennelong with a swing against him, but not enough to unseat him.
But after the leaflet incident the tracking polls swung markedly towards Maxine McKew.
Ironic really. Howard using the dog whistle of xenophobia to win elections, Kelly and Lindsay being the champion of the battlers. And ultimately it was Kelly and the Non English Speaking voters that done Howard in. And the battlers of Linsday as well.
