Is Clive Palmer the saviour of ALP electoral success in September?
In announcing the formation of the Uniting Australia Party to contest the next federal election, with identical (or almost) policies to the Liberal Party our favorite mining magnate with delusions of grandeur has potentially split the conservative vote a third way.
Conservative voters will now have the mouthwatering choice between the LNP represented by Tony Abbott and his Clayton policies on every imaginable issue, Bob Katter with his unknown policies, and now Clive Palmer with his modified Clayton Liberal policies. My mouth salivates.
If the conservative vote were split evenly (never going to happen) between these three alternatives the ALP would make a killing in September.
The light on the hill may have just received a burst of flammable gas.
