    ROD CAMERON, FORMER LABOR POLLSTER: The situation facing Labor is quite simply cataclysmic. They’re heading for an electoral disaster of absolute epic proportions. I suspect that a percentage vote in the low 30s and a number of seats in the low 30s is the very, very best that Labor can do, and quite probably they’ll do worse, as long as Julia Gillard remains Prime Minister…

    The problem for Julia Gillard is her lack of credibility. Her credibility is absolutely zero in the electorate. Fairly or unfairly, the electorate is just not listening to her. If they do listen to her, and not many do, but if they do, they get angry and it reinforces their decision not to vote Labor. It hurts me to say that Julia Gillard will bear huge personal responsibility for the train wreck coming to Labor, because so much of the anti-Labor vote is directly attributable to the Prime Minister.
