So fucking stupid, after all these months of him saying oh no I am not returning. BAM!! His back.
Woooo!
I'm still trying to determine if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but still, it's a change!

Yeah that was funny.
He isn't the worst but he isn't what I want.
I don't like the either of them, I'm voting for Pirate Party Australia.
Good riddance. At least now there is a slim hope of Abbot losing

That is my sentiment also.
If he floats the carbon price and puts legalizing gay marriage on the agenda, I see him in with a shot.
No he's not. Sensationalist as fuck.
Gillard has to send a letter to the governor general telling him she's lost support in the lower house, and recommend that he request Rudd form government.
Then assuming that happens, he needs to pass a no-confidence vote in the lower house, and he will need all of his current support plus 4 more.
The shocking twist is that if the independents decide to back the Liberal Party instead, we could have a new government very soon.
We all know this is how it really happened..

I want everyone in the labor party to contract legionnaires disease from one of the air conditioning units in the caucus meeting room and die a slow, horrible death

Penny Wong
heh
it's a shame Wayne swan quit because he knows his shit
Abbott will still win, but he won't win by a complete landslide. With a bit of luck we won't have what happened in QLD, having the coalition with a massive majority.
Still, the labor party is unfit to lead at the present time, they have too many problems in their own ranks.
Australian politics, where everyone is fucked.
