I am watching the Labor Party on TV cheering as if they won!
Drudge is linked to a Reuters story: Conservative leader Abbott wins landslide Australia election victory:
Election officials said with about 65 percent of the vote counted, Abbott's Liberal-National Party coalition had won around 54 percent of the national vote, and projected it would win at least 77 seats in the 150-seat parliament. Party analysts said Abbott would end up with a majority of around 40 seats, ending the country's first minority government since World War Two. Labor had relied upon independent and Greens support for the past three years.If Labour was partying, it must be from their defeat not being as bad as they thought it would be, and thinking there are enough CINOs in Abbott's party that they can make some deals.
