libs poised to claim wa govt , page-11

elguido,
I guess we'll see in the first 60 days if Barnett is as good as the people who voted for him think he is as a Premier of the state. Leadership will be the key driver and it will need to be strong leadership. The fact that he was prepared get out of the political game to smell the roses indicates he might get on with the job given that a lot of his comments during the short campaign were about Carpenter and his government not getting on with it and not making decisions in a timely manner.
