Well, the election whenever it comes might now be a little more interesting. But Abbott is almost nondescript and Rudd is a more blatant “promise breaker” than even Julia Gillard. It will be fascinating to see how the Australian electorate make their choice of the “least worst” option!
(But I wonder whether it is an inherent disadvantage of “party politics” which constrains choices such that electorates continue to have to choose from among scandal-tainted or otherwise unsavoury individuals – as in Italy for example.)

Update 57 Rudd – 45 Gillard
Gillard the back stabber guillotined by a Kevin Rudd returning from his grave!
=====================

The knitting story seems prophetic now.
