It depends on how fundamentally tied to something the ruling party in a minority is. If its something that the other two parties have campaigned against, then they can't support it without pushing for major change or compromise.
For example if the Libs win and run their deficit spending agenda as part of the budget, I can't see it getting through a second budget let alone the first budget unless the Libs make major changes to the promises that they made on the campaign trail.
