Inside the Beltway

Here is my bold prediction: Nicky Hager's book is this weeks news. Next week everyone else will be thinking of something other than Don Brash's emails - probably how the stadium in Auckland can be built on time. That is, unless Don Brash has actually committed a criminal offense, or stayed just inside the law but has been unethical.

To back my prediction up - today's poll on Stuff. While self-selecting and highly unscientific, it does reflect the apathy most people have to political manuveuring.

Furthermore, the fervour of comments in Political Blogs make me think this is the type of issue that gets politicos excited, but the general public goes yawn and wonders "why they don't concentrate on more important issues".



UPDATE: Okay, So I think I got this prediction very wrong. Bugger!
