*cannt except that Gillard can do no wrong*
What are you on about Rechtub?
That can not be what you think.
Abbott is better than Gillard?
MATE you would be a better leader than any of those two.
Abbott is going to go, this year, Gillard too.
But this spiders web of a thread has you pinned upside down in the web!
The day the numbers are there Bill Shorten leads Labor.
And numbers or not Turnbull does a Howard back from the dead this year.
AND we will be left to wounder why it took both party's so long.

I read the news, you should try it.

Belly, from the little I have seen of Bill Shorten, I am quite impressed, at least on most things.

As for Malcom, well I have to agree there two.

Hopefully common sense will prevail and these two will contest the next election.

At least we would be the winners, as either one of these are capable of wining an election, as opposed to loading one.

I hope you are right.

If I/WE are not right Rechtub, it will say in fact both party's have no regard for the Australian voters wants.
Rest it is coming, and you can bank on it.
Right now only the complicating factor Kevin Rudd and his supporters stands in the way.
Behind the scenes Shortens followers are active.

Lexi,

Are you prepared to eat crow now?

"Ask yourself not whether Tony Abbott is better than Julia Gillard, ask yourself whether Julia Gillard deserves the trust of the Australian people considering the lies and backflips she is famous for."

Personally I'm not impressed by either of them but feel that Abbott is just as notorious for backflips and given his own history - certainly not worthy of public trust.

Just telling people what they want to hear is not leading - it's following. I prefer to wait until he actually comes up with anything of his own before I make any judgements.
