Today he was asked what wa shis biggest mistake??
I wa sexpecting him to say dismantling the pacific solution??
but no,
He comes out with, Not pressing ahead with a carbon price??
So here we have the wanna be labor leader, stating that he basically supports in full the CT, how can he be so thick??
It is 1 of a few policies that is the death knell for labor??
So if he gets the leadership, all the libs need do is say, a vote for Rudd is a vote for keeping the CT.
On that note I say Rudd is toast, I reckon he'll lose his seat?

Rudd talks with a fork tongue, you know when he is lying, his lips are moving.
Politically border control has done enough damage on its own (just in Sydney's west) the CT was a toss of the coin issue at the time as opinion about the CT was drifting away. Gillard stupidly lied about it which has caused its eventual death, the CT will either be removed or suffer a death of a thousand cuts. The fact that she lied about it and inflicted it in an undemocratically way has destroyed the idea for at least a generation.
Based on the polling most seem to say he will hold on, if he does loose his seat it won't be by much, he is on a 8+% margin.
He is a good campaigner and he will get a big sympathy vote, while QLD looks like a disaster area for the ALP (Rudd might be the only one left) I would not write him off.
But no one saw the QLD state election disaster, everyone was suggesting the swing was going to be 6-8% which is huge ...... it was over 16%.
