If you are not a rusted on coalition fan, then Annabel Crabb's analysis of the multiple SNAFUs of the Liberal campaign is an almost perfect article - the only complaint that I have is that she could not write Clusterfuck in full for fear of offending Aunty.

Dutton is sick. Desperate and depraved. And if you think the ABC won't be destroyed by him and his henchmen after this rant, think again. He is a fascist - unfit for public office, let alone the PMship. #auspoI

Dutton slammed over 'cynical' campaign move Peter Dutton has jumped on community concerns about crime, unveiling a $750 million package to tackle the problem.

African gangs redux. Like a dog returning to his own vomit, Dutton is claiming Victorians are too scared to go out shopping again. He's got nothing to offer at all has he? Utterly pathetic. #auspoI

Jacinta Price pledges to ‘make Australia great again’ in WA The firebrand Coalition senator echoed Donald Trump’s signature pledge during a campaign where Labor has been trying to link the opposition to the US president.

A genuine leader does not follow the lead of others. That would makes them a follower. By following the orange shitgibbon Dutton proves he's not a leader. He's just pathetic. #auspoI

Police remove homophobic banners hung over Melbourne highway targeting Labor MP Julian Hill Exclusive: Police confirm report of two offensive signs targeting Bruce MP Julian Hill, who is gay, hung on overpass bridge

Given the Liberals' campaign manager was recently sacked for offensive tweets, and their candidate outed for publishing BS about Hazaras in Afghanistan, my suspicions of who is responsible for this are narrow. #auspoI

‘We’ve made a mistake’: Peter Dutton backs down on work from home policy The Coalition has also walked away from plans to sack 41,000 public service employees, raising questions about how it will pay for major election policies

The bigger question is, why didn't they have any research showing how unpopular this policy is? Everything is rushed and half baked. #auspoI

#auspoI don’t believe that they are “flocking” to Dutton. This is the narrative certain media are selling to encourage undecided voters to lean in that direction. Those who might think it would be good to be on the winning side of the election.
