Good on ya, Aussies! Prime Minister Michael Howard has won his fourth term in an election seen as a referendum on Australian participation in the liberation of Iraq. Howard’s party not only won, they increased their share of the vote.
Is this a harbinger of things to come in the US? I damn sure hope so. It’s certainly a defeat for Kerry, whose sister lives in Australia where she heads an anti-Howard organization.
This is one country that won’t be leaving the coalition.
See Tim Blair’s for all the details.
