Title: 5 votes and counting

Backers of a return to Mr Rudd are split over whether to challenge Ms Gillard in the next two days, before parliament breaks for six weeks, or wait until after the May 14 budget.

The Rudd camp is adamant the gap in caucus support is narrowing, with The Australian Financial Review (AFR) estimating it could be as few as five votes in the 102-member caucus.

hardly convincing.

He'd want to win by a vast margin to have any chance of presenting a united front.

Nah not really. Tony won by 1 vote and he managed okay. Surely if a donkey can, anyone can.

well when a donkey pampers to other donkeys, what would one expect? Sloganeering is a donkeys game and the donkey is fantastic at it. See, he's got you hook, line and sinker! Dummmmyyyy! ;D

If Rudd takes over, just how long are we expecting the government to keep going? Gillard and Swan may very well quit politics and then all of a sudden we have bielections. I'd say it'll be bye bye gillard and hello rudd and instant election. Unfortunately it looks like nothings going to save this country from the donkey's penis. :(

Plenty of people celebrated from the last election - which saw us elect the current donkey.
Gillard is truly hopeless.

I don't have any faith Abbott will be any better, but its quite hard to be any worse.
