		Janine was active all of her life in the Brighton area, and it was on issues of community import down there that I first came into contact with her.
		Janine, on the other hand, was always able, as in politics, to find a way past, be it to the left or to the right, and she took it regardless of what might have been behind her noting what was happening.

		Janine's pioneering work for and with women clearly demonstrated to the Australian community that women were not only capable of playing a role in national politics, but also in excelling in electoral results.
		Under Janine's leadership, the Australian Democrats held the balance of power in the Senate and championed the equal rights and responsibilities of the Senate as an integral part of Australia's Federal Parliament.
		Janine's enormous courage in moving to the Lower House to contest Kingston in 1990 was proof of her passion for ensuring that the Democrats continued to exert their influence as a Party that provided checks and balances in the Parliamentary process.

		Senator Haines was always in the headlines and went from being `Chipp's girl' to just `Janine' in a relatively short space of time, chalking up a very impressive list of firsts along the way.
		Janine Haines may have lost her last electoral battle, but her impact on Australian politics is arguably greater than that of any politician elected in March.

		All the great work done by Janine Haines to set the party on the path to greatness was undone by the poor judgement of Meg Lees and the treachery of Cheryl Kernot, none of which could be reversed by the inexperience of Natasha Stott-Despoja.
		Ms Haines was one of the first political people that I became aware of, and was clearly one of the best Pollies of the 1980s.
		Because of Janine Haines' example and leadership, many Australian women (such as myself), were emboldened to take the risks necessary to be in charge of our own lives, at work, at home, and in the areas of personal finance and education.

		Susan Mitchell began her interview with Janine Haines by asking about the future feminisation of politics—or rather, the possibility of it.
		Janine did not believe that as soon as there was a certain number of women in parliament everything would be fine, but she thought that at least with more numbers in caucuses and party rooms women would be in a better position to influence the agenda.
		As Janine Haines said, it won't necessarily make the parliament behave better but it might bring an end to some of the political stag fights.

		I was privileged to serve under Janine Haines' leadership during my three years in the Senate from 1987 to 1990.
		Janine's grasp of economics, the environment and just about every issue under the sun and, in particular, feminist ones, was immense.
		It is truly sad that Janine Haines has died so young and everyone's sympathy must go out to Ian, her husband of thirty-seven years, and to her children and grandchildren.

		Janine was absolutely different from Don but still a tremendously inspirational Leader and so clever and smart and able to grasp things immediately and put them out to the public in an understandable way.

		Even the most successful leader of all, Janine Haines, had to fight no less than four member-leadership ballots in a row before her first election, her challengers being from the Democrat Left.
		The period when Janine Haines led the Democrats saw the highest public percentage support, both in polls and in the 1990 election.
		Had she been committed to the campaign when she was at her peak, it is possible some of those seats would have fallen to the Democrats and created a “fortress” to build out from, including the likelihood of taking the Federal seat of Mayo in 1998.

	PWHCE: Discord in the Australian Democrats
		During her tenure as Australian Democrats leader Haines (1986 to 1990) gave a lot of leeway to individual Australian Democrat Senators to the point that she seemed to be a figurehead.
		Nonetheless, Haines' decision to contest the federal lower house of Kingston in Adelaide at the 1990 federal election and her undertaking to retire from politics if she failed to win the seat, might very well have helped the Australian Democrats to achieve their highest federal vote to date.
		Whatever one's ideological disposition, Haines' decision to retire after she failed to win Kingston should be recognized as an act of personal integrity.
