Is "badly" really the right word here?


"Newshub political editor Jenna Lynch has predicted 'absolute carnage and political armageddon' for Labour – pointing out the party risks losing senior MPs like David Parker, Willie Jackson, Adrian Rurawhe, and Ayesha Verrall. And if things go really badly, even Finance Minister Grant Robertson could be chucked out."
~ Bryce Edwards, from his post 'Ten reasons Labour’s support has halved'

Yeah, badly isn't the right word here. It ought to be replaced by the word well. Badly is the right work to describe how things will go after the election, whichever creatures end up with power.

Don't forget this. Every election is won by government.
