No I don't think it's going to happen. But doesn't the Fairfax press want it to! Last weekend the papers were as good as they will ever get. Full of praise for a political leader who can actually speak in complete sentences and in fact can string together several at a time. More than several in fact. I hear Bob talking to that inner city trendoid Richard Glover last week and he went on at such length and with such erudition that he put me in mind of the great Gough.
The Spectator had a good cartoon showing Bob in yankee civil war uniform taking careful aim and shoting himself through the foot. A reference to the misjudged comment about political instability in New Guinea. Bob's response to that was to say "yes, that was a mistake". Now why didn't some genius suggest that turn of phrase to Gillard or Abbott?
He's very fit, more qualified for the job than anyone in the caucus and demonstrably electable over Abbott but the haters in the caucus won't let it happen. Nothing is going to stop little Bill.
