2013 Federal election - Rudd sets date as 7th September

[Gozu]

I think we might all be getting sucked in here, won't be surprised if Gillard is re-elected today.

gillard re-elected is what Abbott wants because most of us voting population hate her

The vast majority of voters don't want either Gillard or Abbott.

[Cambridge Clarrie]

At the end of today we'll end up with either the worst ever or second worst ever Prime Minister. What a disgrace and how STUPID are the Australian public for voting these idiots in.

[dedja]

True, but they don't want Gillard more ...

[mighty_tiger_79]

Gillard winning would be the worse thing that could happen to Labor ... her position would be untenable

Not if it's decisive, which I would expect.

if its a decicive win, her position will be tenable although temporariliy till sept 14th

but as i said above, if she wins today, just load up on liberal winning the next election

she is clueless

as a labor person i will be voting liberal and it pains me to say this but i prefer an alleged mysoginist (which i dont think he is) over a backstabbing dumb biatch

i didnt think Rudd was that bad

and in 2007 it was either Rudd or workchoices and as i work in an industry that is on the lower end of the scale i wasnt going to vote to lose any penalty rates

2010 - gillard obviously gave the independants something to keep them happy

[mighty_tiger_79]

i hope Rudd doesnt run

abc24 - a tweet says he hasnt made up his mind with 20 MPS in his office urging him to run

[Wedgie]

I'd vote for Rudd ahead of both Gillard and Abbott any day. It'd be nice to have an option as the current two give Mr none.

this election today may set a new record for users on the site

I'm very much the same... If she stays I couldn't bring myself to vote for a party led by her... Abbott is no better (well maybe minutely) but I can't bring myself to vote for his mob either...

If Turnbell led the Oppo's then I would strongly consider voting for the Libs...

Gillard with a majority vote by six or more will emerge with a huge confidence boost. If her margin is one or two she is stuffed. The challenger only needs a margin of one to take the cake and be confident.
But if he wins surely Tony will push another no confidence vote pronto and hopefully the Indies will back the Coalition.

And with that Rudd announces he isn't running for the leadersip

[mighty_tiger_79]

good work Rudd

at least he doesnt lie!

Says a lot about the opposition they were up against at the time

[Sky Pilot]

And with that Rudd announces he isn't running for the leadersip

Well he said "those conditions don't exist at the moment" then went into the caucus meeting. So now if he overwhelms them with a statement that he remains the only one in the room capable of taking Labor to the polls with a chance, then the conditions will change

[The Sleeping Giant]

What a schmozzle.

[dedja]

what a bunch of muppets ...

[Sky Pilot]

You could have backed Julia at $6 early today. Should have had a piece of that I reckon. I kinda think she will sh!t this in
