It seemed people had Mr Abbott pegged then too. I was in a state of shock when I woke on the morning after the election to discover he was our new PM.
Why did it take a Budget release to show the people of Australia the truth. Why are so many of the country such bad judges of character?
How do people like Tony Abbott and Joe Hockey fly under the radar?
Why are people like these in the stories below, forgotten? Read their stories and see if you think it's fair.
Disability Support Pension Recipients
Single Parents of Disabled Children and their siblings
Single Parents doing it alone
And anyone else impacted by these broken promises
Is it the Mainstream Media exposure? Is it that Australians all hope one day to be wealthy and pin their hopes on the rich to lead the way? Are we truly that gullible?
Whatever it is, if we get the chance to go to the polls again, I hope we get it right this time! Use your votes wisely Australia.
