Key's popularity grew when he distanced himself from Brash and later Roger Douglas.<br /> Alas, I think neither Key nor Goff will help turn this country around socially or re-balance our economy. Cunliffe looks promising and so I showed him politely waiting.Dave Wollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02028515268606806885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1989963675360651809.post-62879962628100864732010-08-20T02:06:34.516-07:002010-08-20T02:06:34.516-07:00Don't let the facts get in the way of a good s...Don't let the facts get in the way of a good story will you? Remember Don Brash got within 2% of being elected Prime Minister after the National Party and its policies had been decimated (under Bill English) at the previous Election. So much for Brash's ideas being out of tune with the public. He performed one of the National Party's biggest comebacks that ultimately delivered John Key to power three years later. If Phil Goff can be even half as successful as Brash was at communicating his ideas to the public, he'll do far better than you predict at challenging Key in 2011 or in the Election to follow.Basilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16515292360733587080noreply@blogger.com
