Well, is this the first leg in the trio of elections that will prove or disprove the anti-war theory as majority opinion? I mean, Howard has won awfully convincingly, hasn't he? And it was claimed by the media around the world that Australia is virulently anti-war. If that was true wouldn't Howard have been voted out handily?

Now if Bush wins and then Blair wins I might suggest that we will discover that the anti-war crowd is just loud, but has not nearly enough support among less hyperbolic citizenry?

What is your opinion? Is the anti-war crowd all bark and no bite as far as election majorities go?
