I would agree with Rhosty, based on 2010 Abbott never ran out of puff.

Rudd, however, is looking distinctly jaded.

'Kathryn Crosby is a political and communication strategist ' maybe she can change to climate science come 7 September. Her science would fit the bill nicely.

Kathryn, if you care to make a wager on a Labor win, Sportsbet will take your money and give you odds of 7.5 to one. Please feel free to punt as much as you like -- the more they pull in from Labor hopefuls, the bigger the Coalition bets they can cover.

All I can say is that if the author thinks that the Labor Party has a snowball's chance in hell of winning the election they should go to Centrebet and get as much on Labor at 7.5:1 as they can.

I too doubt that Labor can win, but I think they will get a lot closer to the winning post than anyone previously thought.

Why? Because Abbott is supremely unpopular with many people...mainly women. If he was popular, he should have beaten Gillard 3 years ago, especially after all the messy Labor in-fighting at the time.

As for me, I will be going on policies, and I don't like Labor's policy on Salary packaged cars, and I do like Liberal's generous parental leave scheme.
Now...if only I could just get past my instinctive dislike of Abbott.

It is nothing short of astounding how the supporters of incompetence are now resorting to talk themselves into voting for Rudd. Are they totally devoid of sense & integrity ?
