The article is yet another example of "the Left's" fascination with the >tactical at the expense of the strategic. When National comes second in
the urban electorate that Goff has held for umpteeump years the margin
won't matter and will have no bearing at all at the strategic level; and
all attempts by the Opposition to frame a predictable, minor tactical win
as an earth-changing strategic indicator will turn to dust.

Okay. The spitting by demonstrators is a worldwide thing.
Begun by a certain ism that trained its 'representatives' in protest groups. >Which is why you'll notice riot police in all countries wear visored

By the way I could teach you more about computers than you would believe possible. Fot many years I was a Microsoft MVP (look it up)!

No government party has ever taken an electorate off the opposition in

That party vote margin in favour of National makes it even more
surprising that National did not take more care over their candidate >selection - they would have gained a huge boost from taking the seat
off Labour,
That is simply not correct. With National currently achieving nearly
50% of support in the periodic polls, winning the by-election would
not make much difference to National but would make a huge difference
to Labour. This is a safe labour electorate seat but National has
solid party-vote support making this an intriguing contest that they
can pitch a junior wannabe MP into.
but the arrogance and incompetence of this candidate rings
back the memory of another low on the Nat list - the unlamented Aaron >Gilmore.
Irrelevant.
