Yes, time will tell.
I am not sure that the ALP will take too much harm from this loss.
The government returned in New South Wales was a female led centrist government , which really hadn't done a lot wrong.
The contrast with the feds couldn't be more obvious. They dumped or forced out most of the people who looked or sounded like Gladys.
ScoMo has left it a bit late to soften his image, and his attempts to do so, I think, will not be believed by the electorate.
On policy, the retirement tax arguments might hurt, but I think the negative gearing argument will be at worst, neutral.
Still Labor's to lose.
On the senate, even if they maintain their present lead in the polls,control of the virtually impossible.
cheers
