Multi-Choice Test: The Australian Election

The Australian Election: Was it  (choose one):

a) a victory for a neanderthal who doubts the global warming nonsense, likes women, sports, beer, and wants lower taxes?
b) a sign that the voters of Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Britain are all to the right of those in the US?
c) a referendum on axing the carbon tax?
d) an indication Australia has now decided to permanently enshrine itself as the 'Lucky Country': i.e., only by the luck of birth can one now reside in Australia.

Please select one.
