Lets hope they both choke on a thrown sandwich and Kitty Flannigans appears from nowhere to take the reigns of Australias chop shop of politics.

Ahhaha That's not a bad idea.

Or if you saw the project last night, Klitty.. Oo

Doug Cameron is good.

Well it seems unlikely, since the election is only a few months away.

Abbot isn't that well liked, but Gillard was loathed, so Rudd has a tough challenge ahead to turn it around.

Plenty of lobbyist and tax payer money is going to be blown, I'm sure.

Big business are drawing up next financial year's budgets based on a Liberal win so I'm pretty sure it's done and dusted. I read stock analyses as part of my job.

It probably 'seemed unlikely' that the prospect of Rudd re-emerging as leader, in any realistic sense...not a week ago...

Watch this space...

Go KEV.
I reckon the Chinese would of whispered some things in his ears before he came back to Aus, that's a given, Kev and the Chines are two pea's in a pod.
I hope over the last three years his learnt the skill of knife fighting..
Hell why don't that do it old school with a knife fight on top parliament house!

Still no result.
However it has been suggested that a Rudd win will see an August election.

Gillard is just plain embarrassing, Rudd has got to be the better option for the ALP.

'big business' are who decides?
Did your 'stock analysis' (I can never type that word without laughing) tell you this based on a Gillard led government?

Yeh Rudd won.

This rings in my ears, shamefully, when i ponder the Circus that is Australian politics.

"the price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men” – Plato

August 24 election date, just on Radio source: Sky news.
Rudd may take the leadership of the Labour party until the election, but that is it, he won't become PM again in his own right, his arrogance fails him. imho.

Well, you're right on that one.

Figured he'd wait till after the election to step back into the picture.

Just heard that they are still balloting, however Gillards numbers man has stated " Rudd will win" !

Enough of this non-sense ... State of Origin game 2 is on shortly !

Go the Blues !!

"The Chinese are trying to ratfu*k us" - Kevin Rudd at the Kyoto Summit 2010. Things ended badly for Ruddy and the Chinese leadership. They just didn't take to him.

Apologies, Rudd hasn't won yet.

Got caught out with newscorp again... Media have been prematurely leaking the outcome.

That'll learn me!

It doesn't matter who's in power Labour or Liberal, they're all lying cheating scum. I cant stand Abbott, and I hated the condescending tone of Gillard, her over annunciating every word.
But KRudd is even worse, true he did win the 2007 election and Gillard stabbed in the back but it'll be pretty much the same people under Ruddy that have failed the country in the last few years.
I am a Labour voter from way back, but there is a dearth of talent in both parties.
Anyway lets face facts, Australia cannot compete with Asia in manufacturing because we all love our standard of living, the workers over there are working for jack squat. I dont want a paycut to compete. Do you?
That leaves us with importing goods, as its hard to export and compete against China and India.
So all the big players in OZ want to close down Aussie manufacturing and setup in Asia, Keating was right we have become a banana republic, the banks rake it in while the average aussies future is lining up for the dole queue.
How is Ruddy gonna fix that? I know Abbott wont be able to.

No, they base their forecasts on political analysis which comes ultimately from polls.

None of them have mentioned business plans in relation to a ALP-led government only a Liberal-led government.
