Oh magoo, you've done it again, thanks for proving my point, longy, I can always depend on you to make a fool of yourself. Grin

Tony Abbott's approval fell 2 percentage points to 41 per cent and his disapproval rose 2 points to 54 per cent. Malcolm Turnbull remains well ahead of both Tony Abbott and Joe Hockey as preferred Liberal leader.

OH, and this

On the downside for the Coalition, Mr Abbott's personal ratings fell to their worst levels since he became leader

Yep increasing his margin Grin

If this trend continues to the point where they hit parity again, the silence of vocal members like Maqqa and Progs would be hilarious.

You can already see they are worried, I'm not surprised, if Abbott is going backwards against the worst polling PM in history how bad is he? Grin

I dont think Gillard will survive until the next election, but I'm CERTAIN Abbott wont. Grin

You give far too much weight to that poll question. Not many people like any politician and only when they govern do you find true sentiment but still probably a bit over or under rated. Of course that would not be your opinion so go ahead and hold onto a false premise.

If I was asked who I prefer to be PM, I think of the party 1st, person 2nd regardless who the person was.

Take Howard for instance. Before governing, I would have put him last. Now I would put him first, after thinking of the party he belonged to..

Take Rudd. He was on such a high before anyone knew how he would/could govern. Boy were they wrong about the Dudd.

You make the mistake of thinking everyone thinks like you, MANY people including MANY posters here would vote for the coalition if they changed just one thing, ABBOTT.

But in a time when it mattered, maybe it would be something to think about. Last election would have been a good time to think about it as it was known that the election was going to go close to 50 50. But even then it is only a consideration, not a given.

and you are a political science student???? good grief. you lack of understanding of political fundamentals is amazing.

nice troll but no cigar, you'll be proven wrong just like you always are.

I understand you are intimidated by Abbotts mastery of his job and the way he took the coalition from 16points down to 23% UP, but that is still no reason to be quite so silly. IN fact, not one single analyst is pointing to Abbott being replaced and for good reason. HE IS WINNING AND INCREASING HIS MARGIN.

Thank the Greens and their determination to introduce the CT, less so Abbott.

You are severely underestimating Australians' capacity for hate.

They'll vote in Abbott to get rid of Gillard - easy. I know it's hard to comprehend an Abbott government, but we might as well start trying.

THE Gillard government has enjoyed a boost in support despite the chaos of last week, but it would still be trounced should an election be held today.

The latest Herald/Nielsen poll finds Labor's primary vote has jumped 3 percentage points in a month to 30 per cent, a small increase but psychologically significant because it is the first time since May Labor's first preference vote has been in the 30s.

The Coalition's primary vote was steady at 48 per cent, giving it a two-party-preferred lead over Labor of 57 per cent to 43 per cent.

The poll also shows Kevin Rudd remains twice as popular as preferred Labor leader compared with either Ms Gillard or the only other likely contender, Stephen Smith.

Mr Smith, who is being touted by the Right to run for the leadership against Mr Rudd should Ms Gillard's reign become untenable, is almost as popular as Ms Gillard.

But Mr Rudd's clear lead makes him the people's favourite, bolstering his case should Labor decide to change.

Tony Abbott's approval fell 2 percentage points to 41 per cent and his disapproval rose 2 points to 54 per cent. Malcolm Turnbull remains well ahead of both Tony Abbott and Joe Hockey as preferred Liberal leader.

On the downside for the Coalition, Mr Abbott's personal ratings fell to their worst levels since he became leader

It looks like phony tony is no more popular than the least popular PM of all time, BOTH are gone, with Turnbull "miles ahead" as preferred opposition leader while Abbotts numbers just keep falling. Grin

Laugh away, last time I heard Turnbull was still in yesterdays fish 'n' chip wrappers.
I also heard it's not Groundhog Day.
Labor and yourself will have to be content with Abbott using the incompetent red haired beanpole upside down as a floor mop.

Sure we brought in Howard because we hated Keating. We brought in Rudd because we hated Howard, but both Rudd and Howard had a semblence of statesman-ship about them.

I just dont see us voting on mass for a nasty piece of work who has achieved nothing.

Statemanship is something you learn on the job. Howard didn't have any of that before he got in. And Rudd?

He speaks good Mandarin, I guess.

Abbott will learn how to inspect the troops and put his feet up on the desk like a real PM. I'm not sure how he'll eradicate that meanness though.

However, he does seem to be working on it.

Nasty piece of work achieving nothing in government. That is why she is refered to as the worst PM in history. Gillard has achieved one thing though. To pizz off the Australian people.
