It's interesting, I don't know if Dutton will be able to win back the moderate seats they lost at the last election

Yeah the yes vote is crushing it in traditional Liberal seats, and they are going to remember this.

The swinging seats were largely the apolitical suburbs, who aren’t idealistic lefties but aren’t rusted-on megachurch culture-warriors either. They bend with the wind. Morrison was on the nose, so they swung to Labor; whether they stay with Labor or conclude, after surveying the famously impartial media, that we need a change is an open question.
