I have no idea what people see in Kev. Anyone that can do what he did to Gillard and the labor party need to be thrown out, not made PM. Talk about a labor fog covering their supporters eyes.
How much has Kev changed ?

The Fairfax Media analysis comes as reports emerge of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s behind-the-scenes fury at how events have soured for him. According to several sources, his travelling party has witnessed familiar outbursts of anger and a growing cranky demeanour from the PM, while campaign headquarters in Melbourne is at a low ebb. Staff members who have dared to voice opinions and challenge strategies have been removed, leaving a sense of distrust and insecurity among those remaining.
Frustration is also growing at how Mr Rudd and his pseudo campaign manager, Bruce Hawker, have been freewheeling on strategies and policy. “The mood is so depressed. It’s like there is no reason left to keep fighting,” one insider said.
“The message of the day sent out from CHQ to seat directors never matches what Kevin stands up and says, campaigners end up wasting their day pulling together materials and stand-ups on an incorrect message. The Canberra press office is even worse off, not even CHQ filling them in, press secretaries there are left to wander the gallery with no information on what is happening that day, relying on watching Sky News to piece the day’s message together. It’s a complete shambles.”
Kevin Rudd has changed.
He is now a kind, considerate, caring and inclusive individual, none of which he was before today at midday.
I reckon we should give him another crack at really stuffing up our country.
All the lies about Kevin are starting to annoy me.

Labor could see Glasson was making inroads in Griffith, so one morning, when he turned up at his favourite campaign corner, he found two elderly Labor stalwarts had already set up shop, with balloons and corflutes bearing the single word "Kevin" in high-octane yellow, above an image of the prime minister.
The two campaigns shared the space companionably enough that morning, but the next day Glasson got out of bed half an hour earlier and beat his rivals to the corner.
The next day, the Labor stalwarts were there first, chuckling away, and on it went, until Glasson found himself standing alone in the pre-dawn darkness just to prove a point.
"I'm a country boy," he told his rivals when they arrived. "I can keep getting here earlier and earlier. Or we can work as a team."
Work as a team they did, arriving at the same time, buying each other coffees, sharing political war stories, discovering a mutual antipathy to Peter Beattie, and getting along so well that passersby commented on how nice it was to see such congeniality between foes.
But one morning, so the story goes, Kevin Rudd drove past and didn't like what he saw. Perhaps the old guys didn't fit with his youth-friendly selfie-seeking image.
Whatever his beef, a complaint was relayed to the Labor stalwarts that they looked like the two grumpy old muppets, Statler and Waldorf, who used to heckle the Muppet Show cast from a balcony.
The old guys took the insult in their stride, and the next time they showed up they stuck up a little sign: "Muppets Corner".
But the day Rudd drafted Beattie onto his team, pushing aside the loyal preselected Labor candidate in Forde, three weeks ago, was the day the muppets could take no more.
The next day they didn't show up. Muppets Corner is now the sole preserve of the "Glasson's Gladiators."
Labor is "sandbagging" in a chaotic campaign to retain the seats it already holds, while the Coalition's campaign rolls on with military precision - that's the latest analysis coming from two of the ABC's correspondents travelling with the respective camps.
It is extremely easy for partisan folk down South to mock our Queensland " I con " Kevin Rudd.
The southern press have quite fairly lambasted him for previously spending like a drunken sailor and wasting a Howard surplus.
This is not fair.
Kevin is one of our folk, and I would still believe he will win and resume his role in completely stuffing up our great country.
And it is what makes us great folks, we are one, as someone once said.
I must zip.

Rudd looked absolutely stuffed on the 730 Report, Leigh Sales still couldn't get him to slip up though, on message and just wont shut up.
