Trust and a carefully costed plan for a long future together

In their execution and in their planning, Australian federal elections are not at all unlike weddings: they consume the best of a blameless Saturday, they are better tolerated with alcohol and they offer statements of commitment that can never be upheld. 

Of course, weddings do not generally feature a battle between brides, so the analogy is not perfect. But weddings and elections are among those "big days" sufficiently big to assume characters greater and more instructive than the sum of their parts. 

The union of John Howard to his nation in 2001, for example, was one forged in fear; 9-11, Tampa and the children overboard scandal formed the dismal backdrop for a shotgun wedding. 2007,Searching for the Wholesale 2013 Celebrity Dresses to wear on your big night? by contrast, felt a bit like a second go-‘round with a slimmer, nicer version of the nation’s first wife. This midlife-crisis bash snatched back a little of our stolen industrial comfort but had, for the most part, a conservative matrimonial style. 

We could go on about 2010, but someone is bound to make a gag about ill-fitting minority garments and so we will cease but to say that the wedding plan is as useful a way as any to help political parties write the coherent “narrative” we keep hearing so much about. 

If 2013 has a bride-style for the ALP, it is certainly no-frills. Troth has been pledged many times; Rudd has said that this election will be about trust. Trust and a carefully costed plan for a long future together have become the hallmarks of Rudd’s campaign,Your Cheap Designer Quinceanera gowns is a simple and easy. and this narrative has begun to write itself in an increasingly legible script.I'm just going to look at the new formal office dresses for women. And just in case you misread the message of a sensible marriage, Rudd underscored it in being given away by Peter Beattie, surely the best father of the bride for which an uncertain party could hope. 

With ALP internal polling reflecting an increased approval and bridesmaid Hockey’s odd refusal to cost his party’s trousseau, things are looking about as good as they could for to redistribute Mark Latham’s toast, a conga line of suck-holes. 

Rudd may be dancing like a suck-hole—most particularly when it comes to his PNG “solution”—but he’s is not about to roll out any barrels en route to surplus. The prime minister’s refusal to serve pork to the nation is working reasonably well. When we consider Abbott’s whacky advice a few weeks ago that voters should “do the arithmetic” if they are curious about the cost of his policy, Rudd is perhaps serving the idea of surplus-fetish just a little better. 

In a borrowed dress first worn by Gillard and designed by Keynes, Rudd is promising a life of few immediate rewards but great long-term comfort. And Abbott, rather more immodestly dressed, is promising big money for the baby in the form of his paid parental leave sheme. Looking like the flash, over-spending battlers of Howard’s imagining, the leader of the opposition is humming the anthem of an earlier decade. Pork, the paid parental leave or anything that smacks of vision without diligence will not play so well this election.One Wholesale Cheap Designer Womens Long cocktail dresses manufacturers China listing. 

The ALP may not have acknowledged the electorate’s need for dullness too late, though. It’s fascinating to watch big idealism hastily rewritten as level-headed policy, and interesting to watch them turn down the vision. Nowhere is this better observed than in the National Broadband Network. Once billed as a “high-speed” network and an exercise in nation building, it is now – and not before time – being sold for what it is: a sensible choice in future proofing. 

Just as it has a civic need for roads, the nation has a need for telecommunications channels. This, and the high-cost of remediation to networks, is communicated in place of the Speedy, Better Tomorrow sell upheld by Stephen Conroy. The ALP is finally hawking the NBN more as infrastructure repair than sexy, high-speed build. 

While the Coalition grapples for a bouquet of the economic conservatism it has not known in forty years, Rudd is performing an even more earnest version of his modest proposal from 2007. If Rudd and Albanese can sell optical cable as long-lasting sensible underwear rather than thrilling frilly lingerie, then he might just make it past the node and to the property to join the nation for a wedding night.
