-----------------------------------------

To the left Abbott's body language was probably a distraction from his message. I think he could improve in this area so the poor threatened left can hear the message over the top of their own gasping and creaking of their chairs as they squirm.

A calm Rudd saying niceties sooths their minds, analysis of the content comes second when they are looking to who won.
