I compare going into politics like entering the rugby field, you have to be able to give and receive the knocks.
Rudd's desperation with a media that does not like him much puts him in the position Abbott has been in for a very long time, yet you don't see Abbott bitching like a little girl ...... what Rudd is doing.
What bemuses me about the media is that the obvious attacks are coming from News but Fairfax seems to be doing a more thorough job on him. It was the complete opposite back in 2007, the media was groping the guy, could not get enough of him, but the electorate back then was also ready to unload on a coalition past its use by date.
this is another reason I say that Australians are Politically Retarded...
use by date?
what a load of crap... !!!
so people based their votes on the fact that Howard had been in for a long time... like durrrrr
we had money in the bank and in our pockets, we had jobs, we didn't have such stupidity like the carbon tax and the only grumblings we got was from Costello because he wanted "his turn" as boss...
oh, those were the days..
