Election update

The National's Barnaby Joyce picked up the last Senate seat in Queensland. Not that he's going to read this, but I extend my congratulations to him and remind him what he said about the Queensland Nationals being a balance of power party.

It doesn't sound good though. Ron Boswell, the other Queensland National Senator, almost said "open slather" on the phone to John Howard, but I think Johnnie reminded him he's surrounded by media just in time.
