Not Bill Shorten. He's the worst candidate yet. They may as well stick to Gillard. I can see the whole party disintegrating altogether if Shorten becomes PM.
He's the man behind the disintegration, the objective was to run the party into the ground so he could rise from the ashes of his own destruction and play Mr Alternative and offer solutions. Mr fix it.
I think Gillard would have known this at the time he encouraged her to topple Rudd for his and her own self-serving purposes. Gillard got to be Australia's first female PM,and gets to retire with a grand parliamentary pension, and Shorten thinks he'll get a stab at being Australia's first president.
Not sure if Rudd knew however.
...
And if Rudd knew, I'm sure he'll be happy with a seat on the UN council, so long as the carbon-tax prevails this is. This said, I cant see Bill Shorten pushing his expired ETS scheme that's left a bad taste in our nations mouths once he begins presidentially campaigning for himself, in full US regalia.
Perhaps Rudd thought that he'd at least end up with a seat on the UN.. personally, I cant see this happening unless the UN get their 10% rent tax. That was the deal!
