West End Girls (and boys)

Nice video guys. Amazing how the local connects with the national - here we have people insisting Howard should retire, and evincing clear weariness with the government, but still not sure what Rudd stands for (even though he's the local member!) 
 
West End may be at odds with the remainder of the electorate, which is, as the OLO electoral profile indicates, quintessentially suburban for the most part - I wonder what a trip to Cannon Hill would turn up? 
 
Graham - it's amazing that Queensland's time appears to have come in Federal politics. I'm sure we all remember the last time a Queenslander hinted at a tilt for the Prime Ministership (as would John Howard, I guess) but now Queenslanders look to be heading for the two top jobs in government (Wayne Swan is shadow treasurer). Is this an indication of the State maturing politically? Is there a particular brand of politics that Queenslanders do well? Or is it just dumb luck? Any thoughts anybody?
