I have been saying the same thing for the last couple of years, at least.

Repeating that the LP will walk over and win this time may turn out to be a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Reverse psychology may work for a while, but stretched over time will either be ignored or produce an opposite undesireable result.

When a political party calls and asks who I would be voting for I always say that I will be voting for them. This will cut the conversation short (no discussion necessary) and at the same time skew their poll.

What I do on election day is my business, not the canvasser’s or the pollster’s.

I heard Gonzi at the Mosta mass meeting, he was upbeat and so was the huge crowd. There are 5 more weeks to go and in politics one never knows.

It-tigrija sal-barkun. Stranger things have happened in the past.
