Nah, Abbott is gone: no one wants him! He was like Brendon Nelson... just playing an interim part and being thanked for it but the understanding was always one chance and see you later!

You can't tell me I'm wrong btw Wink

It was a shame about Nelson he was probably the only Liberal leader in 3 decades who had any potential to lead Australia.

That's perhaps the silliest thing I've read in quite a while. You must really hate Howard. Perhaps it was the long-term success, the plaudits and the massive respect in which he is held that frustrates you.

Respect? Hardly. The involvement in Iraq on a lie, the mean spiritedness and divisiveness, the utter waste of $350Bn of boom time revenue, the STUPID privatisation of Telstra. A spendthrift and drunkard, as useless as PM as he was as Treasurer.

It must really burn you up then that he is regarded by the public as the best PM in history.

You really never heard this claim before? Of course you have, but you had to be anal about it because you don't like the result.

This doesn't support your claim.

You said: "best PM in history".

Survey said: "best-pm-of-the-past-four-decades".

Since when did a history of Australian Prime Ministers begin in 1975?

FAIL!

Citation won’t be supplied.

Best PM in our history was John Curtin. Not only did he see us through WWII, correcting the deficiencies in armaments Menzies had caused, he envisioned the post war rebuilding, the European immigration the Snowy Mts Scheme etc to employ the migrants and the demobbed servicemen. Even the RBA came out of Curtin’s vision.

Howard isn’t fit (or capable) of polishing Curtin’s boots!

According to wrongy, Australian Prime Ministers before 1975 don't count. Grin

Always ready and waiting to ignore a result you don't like. Ever wonder that a poll on favourite PMs might be weighted towards PMs within living memory?

John Howard is repeatedly found as the most popular and BEST PM in multiple polls. The occasional one puts Menzies just above him but that's about it.

You have a funny (and ignorant) notion of 'proven wrong'. You just cant stand the extreme popularity of John Howard.
