Kevin Rudd

Just a test run.

---

This is just a test. Look at the outcome of today's Newspoll published in The Australian. I think it shows that Howard et al's attacks on Rudd and his contact with Burke are not sticking. While it's true that support for Rudd has fallen a few percentage points, the ALP's 2-party pref. rating is actually higher!

 

And I really do not know what everyone out there understand from the whole attack. The encounter does not come across as innately bad. Most of the comments tend to agree, pointing out at the Iraq war and the AWB wheat kickbacks are more concerning by far. It seems to me they are fanning flames from feeble embers because they have nothing else.
