I remember one of the Bates I said to John Key, "Do you know what it means to be poor?" And he said, "When you're
00:00:05
sitting around the table on a Friday night adding up the bills and the more than what's coming in,
00:00:10
>> it's when you're poor." And it just resonated with so many people even though this guy would never be sitting
00:00:15
around on a Friday night, whatever. But he knew exactly that, that sort of get to the end of the week, [ __ ] we got no
00:00:19
money sort of thing, all that sort of. And so people really sort of related to him. One of the debates, you know, Clark
00:00:24
and I remember saying at the end, I hope we think this is a great, oh yes, no, we
00:00:28
must have more of these. This is this is great. And then she came outside and the
00:00:31
media basically said that John Key had WON THE DEBATE. OH, IT'S MARK Sainsbury's fault. And she suddenly
00:00:37
launches into me. I have TO SAY IT NOT five minutes previously how well this had gone and how good it had been. It
00:00:44
was all my fault. I didn't control it properly.
