Title: Where now for Rudd
Post by Maqqa on Mar 21^st, 2013 at 6:04pm

Kevin was seen as the strong saviour for Labor

Today's backdown is an absolute disgrace.

Rudd has now lost all credibility with voters from both side.

So, why did no one challenge Gillard? The answer is simple - no one believes Labor has a hope of winning the next election and therefore no one wants to lead the party to what is certain to be a whopping election defeat. Look at Rudd. He wants the job as badly as she does, but even he knows that now is not the time to be leading the ALP. Gillard wasn't re-elected un-opposed because of her performance, good or bad. It was simply because no one wanted the job and that's all there is to it.

Rudd will put his hand up once Juliar has vacated.
Which will be after the next election when Juliar is sent packing.

Rudd sold Crean a pup

He sold his supporter up the creek
