Whaleoil Redux 2011 – Q4 – November
November 2011 – 755 posts
It was my birthday on 2 November.
I leak Trevor Mallrd’s begging letter.
I blog about Phil Goff and the billions of assets he sold, Labour was of course campaigning in 2011 against the sale of assets.
Trevor Mallard like attacking people who can;t defend themselves. He makes it his personal mission in life. During the election campaign he epitomised nasty by attacking an academic and media commentator because she dared to voice an opinion she was paid for.
Clare Curran made good on her promise to look at regulating ad volumes by incorporating it in Labour’s broadcasting policy. Labour once again showed that when it comes to nanny statism they rule supreme.
I was on NewstalkZB with Leighton Smith and John Pagani in the lead up to the election. This is episode one.
John Key slaughtered Phil Goff in the second leaders debate in Christchurch. Show me the money became the catch cry of the election:
The second show with Leighton Smith and John Pagani on NewstalkZB.
David Cunliffe makes sexist comments about Judith Collins, comments he later has to apologise for.
I blog about the defining moment of the election.  The defining moment of the election was on Wednesday 2 November 2011 at about 8:30 PM. That was the moment that Phil Goff lost the election.
I busted Colin Craig’s dodgy polls and dodgy polling company. I challenged Roger Larkin to a $1000 bet on the results of Rodney and the Conservatives. He didn;t take me up on it.
I complained to the Electoral Commission about Jim Anderton’s illegal letter to constituents. The Electoral Commission referred it to the Police. The Police are yet to announce any progress.
Labour and Trevor Mallard counted on their massive use of social media to win the election for them. unfortunately it involved Trevor Mallard talking to people which usually resulted in him abusing them. Like small business owners.
Another appearance on NewstalkZB with Leighton Smith and John Pagani.
I leak an email from Chris Flatt where he tells Labour supporters that “the shift has begun” off of the back of one poll. The next day more polls are released showing that Chris was a bit premature with his joy.
National’s signs are vandalised across the country one month after I suspected this would be the case. The day after I surmised that the vandals were Greens.
The Greens are indeed behind the vandalism with a key Green staffer and her boyfriend involved. Russel Norman was forced to admit their involvement just hours after I published motorcycle number plates that identified Jolyon White.
I appeared on Leighton Smith’s show to talk about the Green’s Vandalism.
Trevor Mallard even got nasty about one of Labour’s own candidates.
Another appearance on Leighton Smith’s NewstalkZB show with John Pagani.
Jolyon White, the Green party vandal, was referred to Police.
I blog the 1500 words that are banned in txting in Pakistan.
David Cunliffe proves Labour is nasty by threatening kids that Santa’s sleigh would be sold by National.
I appeared on 60 minutes with that awful Martyn Bradbury.
Labour plays the State house Eviction card again in a  redux of 2005.
Cactus Kate and I did a Live Chat. Anything the politicians can do we can do better. I will do more of these in the coming year.
David Cunliffe really goes to town against the “greasy little fella in the blue suit”:
The last appearance on Leighton Smith’s show before the election.
I appeared on The Nation for post election analysis.
I blog about the Moroney Effect: the effect that happens to candidate majorities whenever Sue Moroney stands against them.
I discuss the problems of campaigning using social media. Looking at the reviews of the year int hese posts the sheer weight of opportunity gifted to bloggers by inept people like Trevor Mallard is staggering.
The post election wrap up with Leighton Smith and john Pagani.
I review the results of Labour’s nasties.
