Tony Abbott:
If Rudd more or less supports the Government on everything but Australian Workplace Agreements and troops in Iraq, it's hard to argue the Government deserves to be defeated.
And get this:
Ambitious politicians are quite capable of saying one thing and doing another... In any event, it's much easier to say the right thing than to do it.
Abbott should know all about that! But the end of Howard's Conga Line echo chamber is mercifully now in sight:
It's impossible to be an echo when there's no longer anyone to echo.
Cricket, cricket...
