    Just read about Credlin and the carbon 'tax' and you may think differently. Not unless you want more of the same.

    Credlin, who became a Sky News commentator after leaving politics, made her comments during the final minutes of Sky's Sunday Agenda.

    If you missed it, this is what she said:

    Along comes a carbon tax. It wasn’t a carbon tax, as you know. It was many other things in nomenclature terms but we made it a carbon tax. We made it a fight about the hip pocket and not about the environment. That was brutal retail politics and it took Abbott about six months to cut through and when he cut through, Gillard was gone.
