I will vote for the underdog if some tosser like Paul Henry is being a nasty racist, sexist arsehole and playing dirty tricks.
A lot of other people obviously felt the same way about his nasty racist, sexist arsehole comments, because all of a sudden, instead of the local Labour and National candidates being level pegging in local opinion polls (commissioned by the local Wairarapa daily newspaper), support for Paul Henry dropped off dramatically while support for Edwin Perry (the NZ First candidate) and Georgina Beyer (the Labour candidate) — the two targets of Paul Henry's nasty racist & sexist remarks — rose dramatically, and that was borne out by the actual poll results on election day when the National Party copped a real pasting in the Wairarapa electorate because of their candidate's nasty racist, sexist put-downs of other candidates. And until then, Paul Henry was well-liked in Wairarapa due to having been a popular breakfast radio jock for several years before he blotted his copy book in public like that. It certainly opened my eyes to his TRUE personna.
Paul Henry did that to both himself and the Nats by showing his TRUE colours at a “meet the candidates” pre-election public meeting.
Perhaps some people prefer the sort of dirty, nasty politics practised by Paul Henry in the 2002 general election?
