The left side of politics killed the Coalition, page-4

Nope. Scott tried to reform the liberal party into his image, and Australia rejected him for it.

I've said many times in these forums that trying to go down the US Republican bible bashing path absolutely wouldn't work in Australia.

We weren't settled by pilgrims, we were settled by convicts and 10 pound poms. Our national makeup is completely different to the US.

That's why Scott's plan to use a candidate like Deves to stampede outer suburbs into the LNP's loving embrace failed miserably.

There's a reason the Libs have always been a broad church - because in Australia they can't win without the moderates. Many people told Scotty he was forgetting that. The US model won't work here.
