Rudd supporters to rally in Canberra
Jul 29^th, 2012 at 5:51pm

Just after Rudd has been reminding people overseas of his leadership ambitions, and passing his resume around, groups of Rudd supporters are apparently travelling to Canberra to rally for him when Parliament reconvenes.

There is so much agitating going on for the top job at the monent. This should be funny when they show up to cheer for Kevin 0Lemon.

Julia Gillard - twice selected, never elected.

We're still paying for the Whitlam Government.

I thought Rudd was a good Leader in the first few months of his PM position. It became apparent though that he was not a people person. I am sorry Rudd was replaced but that is the way politics goes i guess. Rudd has soiled his image - and regardless of the people's wishes - he will remain on the back bench until the Labor Leadership team deem him as a non threat. He does a great job for his constituency and I believe is a valued member of the Labor Government. I hope he gets back to the front bench

He retired from politics altogether, not just his party.
