Gillard has called for a ALP leadership ballot at 7pm tonight. The question is will Rudd put his name up?

Instead of losing 30-40 seats they'll lose about 15-25 with Rudd.
People disenchanted with current situation not wanting either major party.
Julia has destroyed the ALP.
She will go down as Australia's worst PM.
There will be a lot of Donkey votes on September 14.

The ALP are the EFC of politics.

Kevin Rudd or the worst PM we have ever seen.

choice was easy for Shorten

Makes it easier for Shorten to become leader after the election

Indiginous round ruined by racial slur. Women's round ruined by ousting female PM.

Rudd wins leadership ballot 57-45

 :sleep :sleep

It's even Stevens now - we have 2 leaders with no policies between them

Rudd expected to call an early election in - late August they are speculating

The ALP have done it again.  :clapping
 :lol
The party that ousted Rudd is the party that wants him back.
 :lol :lol
Shorten didn't think Rudd was any good but now he does.
 :lol :lol :lol
It will be the cheapest campaign in the history of politics as we get to watch the coalition use all of the footage of the ALP big shots bagging their Knight in shining armor with some of the worst slurs I've ever heard.
 :lol :lol :lol :lol
It will be excellent viewing can't wait.  :rollin
