After one week ()Can you believe we've still got five weeks of this to go? Murdoch commentators generally agree that Howard won the first week of this election campaign, while Fairfax journalists reckon it was Latham. Either way, ever get the sense that there isn't a lot being said of substance by anybody at all? Our faltering democracy is locked in a battle of set-pieces and increasingly American style showmanship. Reporters are generally incapable of moving away from the he said/she said dynamic, leaving viewers and readers with the feeling that politicians fundamentally underestimate us, the electorate.
