Who's next?

I had wanted to post a poll about who would lead the Liberals to an inevitable defeat in 2010, but that vile swine Scott from Grods has got in first. Instead, I will just have to outline the reasons why the Libs are a complete rabble at the moment.

There is one overriding reason for the Libs current position, disunity.

The coalitions main problem is a total lack of discipline on the Back Bench. Basically the coalition back bench is filled with veteran slack-jawed climate change denialists so far out of touch with every Australian (other than rich pasturalists and miners) it's not funny.

This ugly mob have numerous media sluts in their ranks, and they are already actively undermining Turnbull. Make no mistake, the fact Turnbull believes in AGW, gay marriage, and is a rich banker means he is the enemy for the likes of Tuckey, Mirrabella, Boswell et al.

There are also so many issues before parliament at the moment that highlight this massive division between small "l" Libs and the wackjob conservatives in the Liberal Party.

Labor are also smart enough, and have the numbers to bring in other wedge issues when needed.

The Libs will eat their own, and Turnbull will not be able to keep the tribes from squabbling.

The Wentworth branch-stacker is too impatient and too moderate to counter the 1950s dreamers in his party. He will eventually be dumped as the polls inevitably fail to improve or fall. That leaves a cast of thoroughly unelectable candidates to take his place. Joe Hockey being the most likely replacement.

If the coalition was a dog, you'd have it put down by now.
