" the triumph of spin over substance". This is an attack line embraced by consevatives to attack Labor, picked up from the UK during the Blair years. its much like the "political correctness" nonsense used against Keating.
What of substance came from Howard? You speak of Bob Carr: yes, he had his failures but should be seen in the context of Howardism, where debt funding and Fed/State partnerships to progress the nation were just not accepted. not to mention the burden of the olympics which was probably at the expense of some decent infrastructure.
I mean does anyone think that a major infrastructure project can happen without some state/federal coordination?
