Hard News: Jonesing, in reply to Danyl Mclauchlan,
Oh, here’s a nice quote:
I think a David Shearer led Labour Party will pose more of a threat to National, than any alternative leader.
David Farrar in the Herald, back in late 2011.
Which if anything demonstrates that Farrar knows a turkey when he smells one.

Hard News: So long, and thanks for all…, in reply to Rob Stowell,
This is a gem from the angry 39er :)
What do all those insider traders know?
I guess they read all those endorsements from Opinion Shapers Who Matter, from Farrar to Armstrong, about what an absolutely capital choice Shearer was.

Springsteen's My Best Was Never Good Enough skewers the weak-kneed right-wing weaseling of Forrest Gump:
Every cloud has a silver lining, every dog has his day
She said, "Now don't say nothin'
if you don't have something nice to say."
The tough, now they get going, when the going gets tough
But for you my best was never good enough"Now don't try for a home run, baby
If you can get the job done with a hit"
Remember, "A quitter never wins and a winner never quits"
"The sun don't shine on a sleepin' dog's ass"
And all the rest of that stuff
But for you my best was never good enough"If God gives you nothin' but lemons, then you make some lemonade"
"The early bird catches the fuckin' worm,
Rome wasn't built in a day""Now life's like a box of chocolates,
You never know what you're going to get"
"Stupid is as stupid does and all the rest of that shit"Come'on pretty baby, call my bluff
'Cause for you my best was never good enough
