Apart from the perennial branch stacking debate, yesterday's Labor State Conference seems to have had little heat. The real political discussion would have taken place at the lunchtime Fringe Program:
Has the ALP moved too far from its union roots?Couldn't get there but feedback from those who did would be appreciated.
Who is more out of touch – politicians or journalists?
Next steps in climate change policy
Unlike many unelected State Premiers such as Alan Carpenter and Nathan Rees, Brumby inherited a united party. According to the last opinion poll he has built on this. It appears that he may do an Anna Bligh and get a comfortable majority of his own at next year's poll.
But as South Australian premier Mike Rann can attest, take nothing for granted.
