Mick - given your pathological dislike of comrade Gillard, how do you view some of the more personal attacks on her from Bill Heffernan and Ken Smith? Would it not be better to attack her on a substance level? It hasn't been a good look, regardless of which side of the political fence one sits.
My view is personal attacks are not warranted, Howard should have kicked Heffernan's arse publically. Gillard was on the ropes as a result of her recent threats against business and employers, Heffernan let her of the hook. Really she should thank the idiot. Even so her personal choices/life should be left out of the political debate. Believe it or not I actually admire her achievements, a successful lawyer, deputy leader of the parliamentary ALP all the more difficult to achieve because she is a female, it's just I don't want her running our country.
