Third debate attitude reflects leadership: we ain’t got either

In Bhutan, there is a sense of the common good and of service to one’s country.
 
Unlike Albo, Dutts is up against the mainstream media (MSM). Listening to left-leaning journos give Albo the win in the third debate, and others avoiding calling it because they are closet lefties, makes it clear to me where the MSM’s loyalties lie.

In such an environment, there is some merit in Dutts not being ‘authentic’ about himself and trying to tone down his strength. But this approach is bleeding conservatives to the right. Anecdotally, the Liberal Party is haemorrhaging badly.

Meanwhile, Albo has done the opposite and has been as floppy as a puppy by delivering an Easter message via his pets.

Writing in Unfiltered, Alexandra Marshall had this to say:

Michael de Percy wasn’t very impressed with the debate either and has cautioned Peter Dutton about softening his image to appear ‘relatable’. ‘This approach is bleeding conservatives to the right. Anecdotally, the Liberal Party is haemorrhaging badly.’ The polls agree – if the polls are real. Although that said, it is very difficult to explain what voters have seen in Albanese. His debating skills are non-existent. At best, he played his slogans back like a scratched DVD - stuttering and skipping bits of sentences. It sounds okay until you try to transcribe it and then you realise what a true mess his mind is.
