It would have been hilarious if you were second.
True that. I'd never have lived it down.

And without wishing to bring any negativity into what ought to be a great Guy Fawkes for all mankind, Josh Marshall's Palin post is on the money:
I know there's a lot of talk in Republican circles that Sarah Palin is going to be the star, the new face of the GOP in the post-Bush, post-McCain era. And this speculation has been goosed by Palin's own hints that it's full speed ahead with Palinism on the national stage if she and McCain fall short on Tuesday. But for me the whole idea has never really added up. I'm certainly not the target audience. But my own sense is that Palin's appeal is uniquely and paradoxically tied to the dynamics of this particular election -- an election in which Republicans are expecting, rightly or wrongly, to be beaten decisively and the most aggrieved are uniquely drawn to Palin's bright eyed and unapologetic appeal to resentment and victimology.

Thanks for doing the write-up, Graham. Much appreciated.
The Asia:NZ Foundation event I was part of last year was great value too.
Jamil, Anna and Sudha came down after the conference for a Media7 show that screens tonight (ie: 9.30 Wednesday) on TVNZ 7.

First.
Heh.

So, forgive my scepticism of your analysis, Russell. I guess you will not be overly concerned that the pro-life movement is compromised though :)
Actually, Grant, I'm grateful to you for bothering to go and do the research to answer the question. Seriously.

English-Gate perhaps - here's someone who thinks they're in the know.
And the entry was ...
One rumour (and it is only that) I heard is that it’s proof that English leaked the Hollow Men emails
I'd actually thought all along that this, if anything, would be the bomb: there has been chatter to such effect since the book was published.
But it does look as if the Kiwiblog commenter is simply repeating the same, possibly fanciful, chatter, rather than sharing a genuine tip.
Meanwhile, Tumeke says it's English on the tape.

But, I've been leaked a copy of this neutronic bomb, and here are exclusive extracts I shared with Kiwiblog readers earlier today:
LOL.

Helen was called into a meeting at TV 3 this afternoon. A new Secret Tape apparently tonight on TV3.
How big it would have to be to swing the election now?

Hi Grant,
Family First are "comprehensively" against abortion?
That's what i took from this bit ...
Amend the law to protect the unborn children from conception (18,000 abortions per year represents the worst of child abuse)
Which does, I will grant you, appear to contradict the part you quoted.

Just back in from interviewing Professor Lawrence Lessig.
He flies straight back to the US today, and on return will go directly to a campaign office and join his wife, working the phones for Obama.
Amazing.
