A truly repellant personality, the Labor parties dreams would come true if Abbott were made leader. He’d be a very hard sell to many female voters.

“Can you imagine what he’d [Abbott] be like if he didn’t have the Lord as his saviour?”

Less smarmy and sanctimonious, perhaps?

I suspect he clings to the hand of the Lord because he knows that otherwise Beelzebub would take him over completely.

Adam – some doubt that “people skills” would have gone anywhere without the sponsorship of rodent. So often he was used in the attack dog role.

As we have seen so often, this has very limited public appeal. These days he is another fib who is damaged goods. Virtually everytime he stands on his hind legs in the house, he does further damage to himself.

Remember he came so close to throwing punches in the house. That would have been his political death. A fitting end for a thug and a bully which is what he is.

I am not overly religious but what a curse he would have been to his religion if ever he had remained in the clergy.

Piers Akerman was an editor? How truly horrifying.

Agreed on Abbott, does a lot of charity stuff that goes unnoticed, and can sometimes make some sense. He’s a bit too overtly religious for my personal preferences, but then so is Rudd. But boy can he be a nasty piece of work. Can you imagine what he’d be like if he didn’t have the Lord as his saviour?

This won’t make some (most) people here very happy:

I’ve never been able to figure Abbott out. He’s a very smart guy, and his policy instricts are generally fairly progressive. He was by all accounts quite good as Health minister. But he just cannot stop himself periodically making these really nasty personal attacks on people – particularly women.

It speaks volumes that shanhanhanahanhan AND Dolt are lined up to put the boot into the fibs, mesmerelda in particular.

Whats next porky piers encouraging people to vote labor at the next federal election.

Articles severely critical of the fibs from the aforesaid do not appear without a lot of widespread strong feeling by key players within the fibbers party.

Seems many have put their collective fingers to the wind and deducted the stench is not only Ms mesmereldas rotting political corpse swinging in the breeze but the future of the party of “pig-iron” bob itself unless they find a way to connect to voters.

QT for the fibs has been hijacked by allbull to solely advance his own ambition at any expense to his party or country. They have another rodent on their hands and many of the fibs knew this was likely when he was elected.

All of this even before they start to develop policy for an election looming fast.

But who will ever believe them again.

Just remember the leaflets in Lindsay, surfchoices and the years of the rodent.
