	Is the political game over? - OpinionShaunCarney - www.theage.com.au
		The bubble that has surrounded Australian political leaders, their advisers and the full-time political media for the past 10 years or more is something to behold.
		Latham's meteoric rise to the front of the political stage is down to a simple fact: he has poked a hole in the bubble.
		Transcripts, opinion polls, hair-splitting games of gotcha based on what someone said yesterday compared with what they said four years ago, the substitution of tactics for ideas and policy, and the wholesale acceptance of clever politics, lawyers language and sly campaigning techniques ahead of telling the truth.

	Only a Game
		Parents teach card games to their children, teenagers learn card games from their peers, and adults learn card games from the odd fanatic (such as myself) keen to spread a variety of games to as many people as possible.

	[No title]
		The cover art of this game is also somewhat nostalgic in featuring a drawing of an item familiar to many Baby Boomers, but which may yet be alien to many of the Millennial generation: a voting machine complete with levers, as opposed to the marker-filled, computer scanable ballots of today.
		A game more in the typical vein is Impeached (BapBop LLC, 2005), which bills itself as "Taking a Satirical Peek into the Incompetence, Corruption, and Stupidity of the Bush Administration." Players seek to avoid both impeachment and being trapped in a war in Iraq on their "Quest for Oil".
		As political games go, sales of this title have been relatively brisk: the first run of 3,000 games is already sold out, and as of this writing (4/19/2006) the authors are currently selling their second run of 3,000.

	Masters of the Political Game in Nigeria
		Some conspiracy theorists have even gone on to claim that whatever political scripts being acted out in Nigeria’s political stage today, are scripts written several years ago by the principal characters in the picture.
		Political analysts like Chigbo Ugochukwu who belong to the latter school of thought maintain that “the thing between OBJ and IBB is a matter of pride and honour, driven by selfishness rather than national interests”.
		These indeed must be interesting times for political scientists and analysts in Nigeria, but it may seem that just like the proverb that says “the grass suffers when two elephants fight”, it is the Nigerian people that will suffer the consequences of such political manoeuvres.

		Political capital takes up quite a bit of stamina but without endorsements and political operatives, you're candidate is doomed.

		That's because political games are usually caught in a design dilemma: If you foreground the game's "message", it's usually at the expense of gameplay -- the game is boring.

		Dr Fatima Al Belushi, who last year became the second woman to be given a ministerial portfolio in the government, was on Tuesday accused of displaying public support to a group of candidates in the upcoming municipal and parliamentary elections by attending a social function they helped to organise.
		Three of the organisers to celebrate mid-Ramadan were members of Al Menbar Islamic Society, the political offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood in Bah-rain, and critics believed that the minister, perceived to be an Al Menbar sympathiser, should not have displayed public support.

	China's game with political prisoners (Human Rights Watch, 6-12-2003)
		For more than a decade, China has raised hostage politics to an art form, releasing a few prisoners or even a single prisoner ahead of major international meetings in order to deflect criticism of its abysmal human rights record.
		China's bids to host the Olympics and join the World Trade Organization led to single-prisoner releases, which in the twisted world of international politics were greeted by some as concessions by China.
		China's one-release strategy is worthy of the sixth-century strategist Sun Tsu, who wrote, "Before doing battle, one calculates in the temple, and one will win because calculations were made." Beijing has made a calculation that wins every time: jail many, release one, and the world will praise its progress on human rights.
