Ruddies to re-take power, put up Gay Marriage for referendum, wins the election in a landslide, batfink's head explodes.

LOL.......possibly....i thought it was a given that the lefties hated KRUDD more than Gillard??????????????????????

Labor outside Qld can't stand him.

The Gay community will stand him if they want a reffa.

Well that's 4% of the vote sewn up then.

Public opinion on Rudd is very different from party opinion.

If the ALP were smart (they're evidently not), they would have looked past his abrasive way of running things for the good of the party.

Fixed

Who has been silenced in the media?

Better then 0%

If Rudd put gay marriage on the agenda as an election promise, I'd vote for him. I'd vote for him already...but that's not the point.

So the economy can go in the toilet but as long as we allow gay marriage everything will be OK?

Who said the economy is going in the toilet?

I'm not sure why Rudd in power = shit economy. He managed ok through the GFC.

all makes sense....another minority group.....just put it to a referendum and be done with it

we don't have a shit economy....we just have a 2 or 3 speed fractured economy that is only running on 3 of the 8 cylinders it has....it could be way ahead of where it is...

You're seriously labelling Homosexuals as a "minority group"? :-s

After election, Gillard will step down, Rudd will challenge, Steven Smith too if he still has a seat, and probably a raft of others.

Would you vote yes or no?

I'm not entirely sure she will even retain her own seat.

She's been incumbent for 15 years, in a seat which has been a labour stronghold since 1969 with a 41% margin. Saying she won't retain her seat is absurd.

NO... i didn't say that....

if you think about the subject you would see that it is " GAY MARRIAGE".....
i know quite a few gay couples and only 1 couple rant about gay marriage the others could not give a shit.............

and yes i do believe the gay couples who want gay marriage are a minority......

good question....does not bother me one way or the other.....i am neither for it nor against it.......

does it warrant the cost of running a referendum?????are there more important questions to be asked???

IMHO i think everytime we go to the polls there should be a referendum with 6-10 questions so the people can get the message across to the tards who think THEY run the country....

i would certainly hope she doesn't......[-( [-( [-(

still love to see the bitch kicked out to send a message to the ALP to get it's house in order......

I'm pro-gay marriage but running a referendum on the issue is ridiculous.

WHY????

I'm in general agreeance with Thupercoach. Any kind of vote by the majority on the rights of minorities is a bad idea.

The idea of a "conscious vote" on something like the rights of homosexuals to marry is equally absurd.

well to offer the counter view:

It is equally as bad for the rights of majorities to be decided by minorities.... :d

What rights of the straight majority are being impacted by allowing homosexuals to marry?
