The Oz press has been covering this so much, that complaints are coming from readers that we don't even focus this much on Oz elections.

You have GOT to be kidding.
What's the point of focusing on an election taking place in a foreign country?

I kid you not, Shades. We have a soild reputation for being "America's lap dog".
LOL.
I'll have to examine this phenomenon in more detail later. It could be the mutual ties to colonial Britain. While Americans fought the British, the Aussies just preferred to insult them, mainly thorough cricket! Losing the Ashes against the Brits, for Aussies, is like losing a major war. Yet the historical and sentimental ties are still very strong.

Are you serious, Shades?
Given the way America has a tradition of acting as the world's police force, not to mention the way we've recently seen how the global economy is heavily influenced by what happens in the US, it's absolutely no surprise to me at all that this is big news on a worldwide level.
