george, you dont like costello do you.

i think he would have made an awesome PM.

Costello WAS what karnal sarcasticly calls Tony.
Stable, reliable, a steady hand at the helm.

The inappropriate winks (plural)

Cheap, low-life behaviour in accepting a dodgy 'scholarship' for one of his daughters

Caught out for rorting travel expenses. How many times? One, for sure, when he was actually travelling around trying to flog his book

Mouth hanging open --- VERY often. One of the first signs of mental problems, as noted by psychiatrists, is slack-mouth, open-mouth, etc. The mouth is a far more reliable indicator of mental health issues than the 'eyes, windows of the soul' stuff

Tongue hanging out, flicking in and out and VERY often, highly visible. The media must have thousands of photos of Abbott which they've deep-sixed because they show him demonstrating one of the above. Aged-care homes are filled with people who demonstrate the same mouth problems as Abbott

The mental freezes as noted by Rhino

The inappropriateness of wearing cycling gear bearing corporate logos, names, etc

There are more

He calls himself honest, too

He claimed, ' We say what we mean and we do as we say' or some such 'endearingly frank' BS

And who could forget the long, long pauses between the promises, to let it sink in that this was a saviour here who planned to put the country to rights?

The squinty, cold eyes

Our instincts were telling us this was a sociopath here

The reptilian mouth

The shallow jaw

The door-step lower lip, just like Howards

The weak chin

The leathery skin -- reptilian again

The little-man, little dik syndrome

The bow-legged, crab-like gait

Running from the floor at Question time like a mental retard

'I'm the bloke with the not bad looking daughters'

' This isn't going on record, is it ?'

Big mortgage in wife's name

Trying to thieve $9,000 in one swoop at the same time as he was grabbing headlines for calling out others for doing so much less

Wearing sponsor's gear (amgen) while he was campaigning for post of PM

Turning up late for photo opportunities he'd demanded during the bush-fires with the real firies saying he did nothing apart from don the fire-fighting gear and smearing a bit of soot on his face

What a crock

We deserve so much better than this low-class clown

Get onto your MPs and threaten they'll never see your votes again unless they oust Abbott asap

You were saying the same about Abbott during the last federal election. But I love this. You said "We may have not had Rudd ... had Pete been given the reins". And that''s it isn't it. Peter Costello expected to be given the PMship . He wouldn't fight for it of challenge Howard for it. He just expected to get it. Keating was rightly disgusted "Have a go you mug!", he said. Aquascoot, there is no doubt in my mind that the side of politics that really suffers from the "entitlement syndrome" it's you're side of politics.

Typical of Andrei to imply that an autistic person could not become Prime Minister. Andrei, ask your wife. There is nothing which would prevent an autistic person becomming a success! Why would you imply they cannot? Gawd, I could post a zillion links which shoot you down.

It's been suggested Winston Churchill" had asperger syndrome. Cant really see a problem with discussing the possibility that Tony is autistic.

Come on, Costello handed down one tough Budget and coasted. He was very fortunate to become Treasurer when the 90s recession was about over then later the mining boom (more a real estate boom.) All he did was spend as much of the boom time revenue in tax cuts as he could. No building infrastructure, no solving of problems/removing economic bottlenecks, boosting productivvity none of that. Feed tax cuts into and talk up a real estate boom, spend the next surplus on more tax cuts.

Where is the cleverness? Too gutless to challenge Howard, what is there to admire?

Howard—spent on pork, buying elections, middleclass welfare. We need a majority Labor govt to undo the damage those two complete idiots and economic illiterates did.

If we had not had such good, strict prudential regulations the GFC would have seen 2-3 banks, including one of the Big Four, fall over.

Open your eyes! Maybe read Swanny’s book, it is well written and densely nailed down with quotes, footnotes and the rest.

He took over a budget that was riddled with debt from an incompetent Labor government and turned it into a $22bn surplus when he left office. That's no small feat, considering it took 9 years or so to pay off the $96bn debt Keating racked up!

Costello had a mining boom to help him.

Don't forget that he sold our Gold off for a song.
