I agree with this and I think it was part of their strategy for calling the election early. It gave them time to have their dirty laundry aired and enough time for people to forget or dismiss it by the time it actually comes time to vote.
The other part of the strategy of course is to make the other parties spend more so they can't afford another election right away.
