is newman a shoe in in qld?, page-8

A little off-topic for PDN, but:

One thing that needs to be YELLED out to ALL Queenslanders is that Katter is NOT standing for election...!

He is already a federal MP, and the leader of the Katter party in Queensland is one Aidon McLindon, who has been in more than one political party previously.

But all the publicity shots are of Katter, and all the shots of the three parties show Bligh, Newman, and.... yup, Katter. They are very sneakily trying to make this a presidential-style election for state premier, BUT Katter is NOT STANDING FOR ELECTION. And the electorate, due to the media, just don't seem to get that...!

In fact, if the Katter party gets some significant votes, and - heaven forbid - the balance of power - then he will be controlling things from Canberra. All those who professed concern that Newman, as LNP leader, isn't currently a member of the Qld Parliament, would have pink kittens if they realised that possible outcome, I reckon.

But most people just don't seem to get it. And it's the media playing along with the whole "wild-card", "maverick Katter" thing that is to blame.
