he'll be much more at home there. World stage, lots of flights, lots more strutting his stuff, that sort of thing.
But - and I say BUT - if Labor LOSE this election, what will the scenario then be?
Gillard with the rug pulled from under her, and Rudd and HIS supporters still alive and kicking. And he DID have his supporters. Lindsay Tanner for one. Yes, he's going ('cos he knew the Greens would beat him in his seat!) but there's plenty more. And Gillard will be blamed.
This will be a huge tsunami of blame and counter blame. It could get ugly.
Albanese on Lateline announces a new fast train link he says he's dreamt up for the East Coast. No financials or business plan. Big announcement tomorrow. Now where have I heard THAT idea floated before?? Oh, I recall - I heard Bob Brown saying it was HIS policy. A coupla days ago! It's actually a GREENS policy, Mr. Albanese! You seem to have pinched it.
Or, like Julia, is Labor REALLY Greens. Or are Greens REALLY Labor. One gets so mixed up these days.
Don't even know who the hell I am myself, I'm so confused!
