WINNIE GONE???


I never like counting my chickens before they hatch but I am sure I can hear them pecking at their shells after TVNZ's poll tonight has Winston on 28% electorate and 5% party vote in Tauranga...

We hope we here at Roarprawn can hold our collective breaths till next Saturday night.

Eumineides: (classical mythology) the hideous snake-haired monsters (usually three in number) who pursued unpunished criminals.

See also the Euripedean Trilogy, Orestes pursued by such for the killing of his mother Clytemnestra. His mother had, of course, killed his father Agamemnon (killed in his bath, because he had consented/connived in to the death of Orestes' sister, Iphigenia...). Aeschylus. A wonderful series of films were made, 60's or early 70's, by Michael Cacoyannis.


Classic Greek tragedy, only Winston isn't Greek, and this isn't a tragedy !
