Here's the latest Morgan poll http://www.roymorgan.com/findings/morgan-poll-july-8-2013-201307080647

Labor leads the opposition 54.5% to 45.5%.

Yep, Labor continues to get more and more and more popular, every time Abbott opens his mouth. Labor would comfortably win an election.

How long till Abbott gets knifed in the back? Not long I bet.

P Jack you leave your chin exposed with titles and words like that.
I saw different numbers than you.
While feeling the warmth of my party,s return I am aware we have won 50. something two party preferred and lost an election.
Rudd has been brilliant, and put many of my dreamed for reforms on the table.
A start and a needed one.
However Liberals have one ACE as Gillard has gone, and no longer leans on Abbott, propping both up Turnbull rises.
You now will see the silly thought that in telling it like I see it, I am desperately trying to?
Take some wind out of my party,s sails.
now and in the past, future too, my only reason for naming Turnbull, is he is so far in front of Abbott he frightens me.

Labor's (Rudd's) best chance is to be positive. The conservative oppositions negativity, combined with their raft of phony policies is making them a questionable commodity that the voters may well not be prepared to entertain. Voters are starting to fear the consequences of voting conservative, their lack of vision combined with Abbotts poor leadership is making voters nervous. It is unheard of where an invitation by the incumbent to his opponent to debate the issues before the people is refused, in the way Abbott has refused to debate Rudd, what is Abbott hiding from? Abbott well knows that a head to head debate will expose him as a weak leader with phony policies and no vision for Australia.
The events of the past couple of weeks has left the conservatives shell shocked, they thought they were in for an easy ride in September, but not to be. The ball game has taken on a new dimension since Rudd hit the ground running and Abbott has been left in a knot like his blue tie. I'm sure more than on Liberal is mumbling "Where is Turnbull when you need him." A well known cliche, but rather apt here 'a week is a long time in politics.'

A Morgan poll had Latham winning an election too.

All who believe the poll should put their money with bookies who will offer great odds.

Go for it and bet your house on the certainty you see before you. LOL

These polls are taken in Uni campuses not in factories & at Centrelink queues. Go & ask everyday workers with their feet on the ground instead of Ubi students with their heads in the clouds.

Labor's (Rudd's) best chance is to be positive.
Paul1405,
fyi, even a totally flat battery still has a positive terminal. Rudd is that terminal in the ALP.
