So far we have:

 

The Katters

The Lambies

The Palmers

The Dicks

The Hansons

The Madigans

 

I don't know what will become of the Frasers without Malcolm.  That idea might have been buried with him.

 

Please Nick, don't give us the Xenaphons.

 

Have I missed any?

 

There is no way I could ever vote for a party named after a living person.

One way of getting your name into the History books. Becoming immortal may be a secret wish of those overblown, selfimportant  characters.

 

A new, sensible and honest party we need, but not with someones name.

 

Good gosh, if I would start the Lind Party, people would think I am promoting chocolate.

If I vote for the Nick Xenophon Team, will I become a xenophobiac?

 

Xenophobia = unresonable fear of anything strange or foreign.

 

Christian Democratic Party ??? There is nothing democratic in any christian group or sect.

Bugger, I thought he'd only gone as far as a voting group for above the line purposes.
