agreed. but if the did, they would be in danger of losing theirs seats....so i dont blame them for not doing it!! But for the better of the voters they should but why should they if they are a chance of losing theirs seats 18 months before the election is due

Loved the vision in Brisbane today of "Rock Star" Rudd (as the media called it.)

The man of the people....absolutely pathetic scenes!!!

I don't think that goes close .... Howard was pm .....Rudd is a wanna be one !!

Laughable !!!

Like a election between themselves!!!

Rudd was the PM and not only did he kick Howard's arse at the '07 election he sent him into retirement absolutely humiliated as just the 2nd PM to lose his own seat. As a more popular PM than Howard and one of the most popular PM's in history I think he's entitled to soak up the adoration of a shopping mall stroll.

He comes across as some kind of martyr!!!

He's an embarrassment to his party and to himself.

considering we voted rudd in in 07, and then the so called PM thats in at the moment took over in 10. Then was ...out voted in the last election then its odvious that we dont want gillard.

And before you say if we didnt want gillard back in in the last election then why is she the PM, the Kevin 07 party nearly wiped the liberals off the face of the earth, and it was almost virtually impossible for the libs to win the last election as they needed a massive swing to do that, and seeing the results that it was a hung parliment at the last election. for the libs to come back from where they were in 07, that to me proves we dont want gillard. Im sure if rudd was still there in the last election it would have been a diff story for labor.

yes labor won, but they were so far in front in the 07 election and to nearly lose the last, that was a big eye opener.

We didn't vote Rudd in we voted our local members in and the labor caucus voted Rudd in as their leader.

[Bully]

ok then .....

i think we are all clutching at straws here now...

he said/she said,he didnt/she didnt....

julia was clearly out voted whether we voted for local members or not in the previous election,yes she made it but labor were so far in front in the 07 elcetion ,for them to come back to a hung parliment tells me that she was out voted. if it was closer in the 07 election, then im sure the libs would be in power today.

kevin was the clear winner in 07 whether or not we voted for local members to get him power etc.

[southee]

Fact is Rudd was elected in 2007 .... He got put aside as he was very low in the polls . Alot due to some poor decisions by him. He was proven to be a poor pm. One of the worst.

Gillard comes in to do a job. I don't agree with her policies but she is alot better than the media sucker of Rudd.

The guy has had his time . He failed but seems to be hell bent on ripping his party apart and acting like a spoilt school kid who did not get picked on the footy team.

I live in Werribee they Love Julia here don't ask me why. But this is one of the Safest Labor seats in Australia.

i hate both rudd and julia, i hate any labor government, but remind me where julia has gone so well in her rein as PM.??

carbon tax???? haha ok for an example

tell me where the polls says she is doing a good job, like rudd at the time?? I hate both of them , but never agreed to what she did and the facelss memebers behind the scenes that stabbed him in the back

[southee]

Bully .... I can't stand either of them that's why I asked why put back a proven poor pm in Rudd back .

Remember at the time everyone saying "Rudd the dudd!!!"

Never voted labor in my life as this just proves why

People just forget very very easily .....

[Strawb]

Personally I wouldn't trust any of them. If you guys think Abbott would do a great job you guys are dreaming. Abbott will be worse than Costello and don't tell me Turnbull wouldn't mind putting a knife in Abbott's back and taking over the leadership. Abbott wants a US style of wages and work place relations. Abbott would love to be rid of unions also which is not a fair deal at all because some unions do work for their members. Right now there is no one who could really run this country as good as it should on either side of government.
