Has anyone considered, that the Labour Party didn't want RUDD either? Think about this....Gillard was a disaster, they knew they had no chance at the polls with Gillard as leader. Who then to take over the top job, I can only imagine the responses of other cabinet members< I don't want the job, fk that, it's political suicide. I know, lets offer the job to the egotistical K, Rudd. We can get rid of him at the election in the process. Of course, K.R said yes he couldn't help himself.
Now remember his colleagues couldn't stand the prick when he was in the job.....
I have heard mentioned in another thread that Obananas listens to no one, his opinion is far superior to anyone else's, in his own delusional mind. That is K.Rudd to the letter.
No people Australia is not fked because liberals got in. SOUR GRAPES from someone who voted wikileaks.

Many in this thread must obviously be young people because if you dont beleive Australia need Abbott now then you do not understand how sorry the office of priministership had become under Labor.
Abott is a family man, a religious man, a man with values and a man who has proven himself in opposition the last 6 years.
Like former Prime Minister Howard was ridiculed the first time he had a tilt at the leadership position in the late 80's yet became one of our greatest PM's 10 years later. Abott will do the same.
Dont complain that he got in office, he did it on his merits, and Labor could not do enough to suicide themselves.
The worst Socialist 2 terms of government we have ever had. Thats a fact those that understand politics will agree with....it was horrendous, a disaster and a mess.
Lets look towards a brighter future.
Remember: No Socialist/Labor government has ever left office with the budget in surplus....it shows the entrenched culture of wasting money to buy votes.

It's been a no brainer since the first election was announced by Gillard.
I don't exactly think it was a no brainier, the actions of most people are heavily influenced by their emotions and personal feelings and they don't think far enough to take into consideration that he has to answer to a whole cabinet, they just don't vote for him because they don't personally like him. But then again I have never once voted because I see it as a rigged and pointless game, so I'm not exactly an expert on Australian politics. I probably know more about American politics to be honest due to the fact it's discussed so much on ATS.edit on 7/9/2013 by ChaoticOrder because: (no reason given)

to all the ats members not in australia...here are the facts.
the labor party (kevin rudd as prime minister) last night received their lowest vote ever.
tony abbott is the prime minister of australia and the smell of stability is everywhere this morning
the sore losers are that delusional and can absolutely not accept that the majority of australians are smart enough to give the arse to a party who has caused chaos for six years.
most of my family and friends never read a murdoch paper and to think he could tell the majority who too vote for and THAT you actually think they would listen is insane.
last but not least...if you are really that pissed off and cant accept the umpires decission...i hear there will soon be boats LEAVING christmas island and going TOO indonesia you might want to pack your bags and jump on board.

And its not just single mums and dads, over 1.4 million families (two parent and single, working or unable to work) at last count are in need of critical of assistance right now with a further 4 million on the edge. What will happen when he starts cutting penalty rates and millions join us? Its these people as much as ' my kind' who have now have lost their only hope. Rudd was a turd but he had offered hope, yet under Abbot, there simply is no hope, we have devolved and every civil right fought for since 1970 is now gone or up for reinterpretation under a right wing fascist idiocracy.
This hasnt happened in the last 20 hours. this has happened under 6 years of labor government.
