The new government

Yesterday I got a text message from Marcus, saying, 'Christop for PM, Jesus for treasurer.' It turned out he'd sent it to just about everyone. I asked him today why that was, and he said that because he's (apparently) semi-famous he gets all these people asking who he's voting for, and he gets a bit sick of it. So he sent that around to everyone.

I'm pretty pleased with the election results. I think Rudd will be a fair bit less bad than Howard - especially with a more balanced Senate. It seemed like Howard was relieved not to have to do the job anymore.
