Kingmaker in waiting? Opportunity's Qiulae Wong makes her mark in debate (www.rnz.co.nz)

I caught the multiparty debate last night; I have to say despite the sometimes heated exchanges. Every leader came across as mostly sensible.

The clear loser (IMO) was Winston; he kept leaning on past successes and experience; it made him look old and out of touch.

Hard to pick a winner; Q obviously had a lot to do to show kiwis that Opportunity is worthy of that kingmakers spot; and she did, it was an excellent performance.

Something I love about Opportunity is they've got all the cookers on Facebook foaming at the mouth, one of their favourite things to point out is that Qualie's mom worked with National at some point in her career.

They absolutely hate her, it's brilliant.

All the crazys dislike Opportunity; the evidence based policy approach messes with at least one of their beliefs...it doesn't matter what version of crazy it is either.
