Michael Ferguson's refusal to endorse the half-hearted Jeremy Rockliff for the third day in a row shows how divided the Liberals have become.
How many Liberals are holding out with Mr Ferguson?
Elise Archer, formerly in the Ferguson camp, appears to have defected.
What deals have been done to secure Ms Archer's support?
Will she become Treasurer and Deputy Premier?
Jane Howlett was described by Peter Gutwein as being the greatest Sports Minister in Tasmanian history, but was then sacked.
She has been publicly campaigning to get her job back on social media. Has a deal been done to return Ms Howlett to the Ministry in exchange for her support?
Peter Gutwein has still not resigned from Parliament, presumably because Jeremy Rockliff needs his vote on Friday.
Jeremy Rockliff is a nice guy, but does he really have the energy to deliver the long list of incomplete projects he will inherit from Peter Gutwein?
Has Jeremy Rockliff got the energy to deal with the budget mess left by Peter Gutwein?
Tasmania is set to lose hundreds of millions of dollars each year when then the Liberals' GST guarantee and the Mersey Hospital funding run out and hit the budget.
