The two party system is collapsing. That's why the coalition created a DD, so to try and slow it down.

Little did they understand, a DD just assists the break up.

really ever the optimist I see... still trying to drive the wedge and the panic button..

honestly after all these years and not a thing has changed.....

does anyone believe the greens are anything like the party they started out to be??...

I have a feeling greenwin still believes in fairy tales..

lets do everything in our power to stop progress party..

like do you think these wind farms will affect our endangered species???...... Sad

maybe even those bloody crocs up there will have to be moved...........NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

As modelling in this post shows, a double dissolution is unlikely to deliver the Coalition more Senate seats than it currently holds. The government would still need the support of up to half a dozen cross bench Senators to pass legislation.

The only real winner from a double dissolution would be South Australian independent Nick Xenophon, who would bring in two or three Senators on his coat tails.

I agree with that - if anything the Independents and perhaps Mr X will pick up votes - but I think that will be the Senate side. I still don't see the Greens as having any more than what they have had. They will still need to plea bargain and push their policies through (very much watered down I would say) in return for passing Government policies.

Minority government would mean the same scenario for the old parties.
