Some pop song has replaced 2005's Eagle Rock in the 2009 version of Vic Labor's re-election campaign ad. You know the thing: pictures of infrastructure projects, hospitals, happy kids, nurses, teachers, fluff. Why are these blatant plugs not paid for by the ALP?
The ads aren't the only repeat of 2005/06 re-election strategy. There's deck-clearing, too.
Here's a bet: since Energy Minister Peter Batchelor... sorry, a spokesman put the kybosh on selling coal to India - in Victoria "bad" news is always handled by a spokeman - and since the government will soon be looking to redevelop the Latrobe Valley, put all your magic beans on 2011 being the date they announce a coal deal with India.
2001 - no tolls; 2002 - election; 2003 - tolls.
2005 - no desal; 2006 - election; 2007 - desal.
2009 - no coal; 2010 - election; 2011 - coal.
