I think there is a huge difference between getting your rocks of because you just can't help yourself (Abbott)...or doing it while you were STILL MARRIED (Hawke)...and then he comes on the 7:30 report strutting about it like a peacock...what a disgusting old man Hawke is (and was)...and isn't that Blanche a piece of work (not just plastic work either).
As for Julia...I feel sorry for Mathieson. Bad at policy and no doubt bad at other things as well.
