PD hopeful launches unconvincing bid for power

SENATOR Fiona O’Malley gave an unconvincing performance as she launched her campaign for the PD leadership yesterday, saying she could rely on advisers for economic advice.

“One thing I would be inclined to say is that leadership isn’t about one individual, it is about the support and the talents of the organisation and, you know, one can rely on very good advisers in terms of, you know, helping the economy and on economic issues,” she said.

Ms O’Malley also claimed the party had “neglected” its members in the past, but declined to say who was responsible for that.
