re: rudd excellent press conference You don't really think the government and more importantly the media will give Rudd a free rein before the next election.

Against a unified ALP team with an articulate, popular leader and vision, Team Rodent will look increasingly pathetic, immoral and corrupt.

I don't expect a lot from the Murdoch press - however, the now septic Murdoch may still regard himself as the kingmaker and protector of large fortunes, but he is not the Australian electorate, who are fed up with Howard's calumnities.
