It appears to me that P.M. Gillard is trying to bring Labor back to the centre. She cannot win an election from the left of politics. She is trying to put a gap between her and the extremist Greens and is trying to isolate Abbott as being too far to the right.
Personally, I don't see anything wrong with having a US military presence in northern Australia. After all, how long has Pine Gap been there, and US troops have had joint exercises here for decades.
I'm no fan of Gillard or Labor, but you have to admire her political skill on this occasion.
I wonder how Rudd feels now?
