Election 2010: The Greens support is at an all time high – so what are they doing right?

The Greens election campaign this year has focussed its resources on winning balance of power in the Senate – and it looks like the message is getting through. A Morgan Senate poll out today hands seven Senate positions to the Greens with 15.5% support across the country – a swing of 6.5% since the 2007 election. So with The Democrats a thing of the past, and The Nationals and Family First losing support, what are The Greens doing right?
