I'm fascinated by the fact that we have our first female PM but at the same time I'm really apprehensive about what is going to happen and what Gillard is going to be like. As education minister she made a lot of decisions that I didn't agree with, being a student teacher in schools. I just can't believe that our PM was overturned like that, when there wasn't even an election or anything! |

Yeah, I feel very nervous about Gillard as PM... and about Labor's chances of re - election... I am hoping that the changes they've just made aren't too little too late and the backlash dies down... it was a foolish policy path for Rudd to take with the mining / natural resources tax discussion... it seems this really hurt him and overshadowed many of the great things he achieved in his term as PM...
But i really want to see Gillard succeed all that being said. I have been a labor voter in the past, and if I was in Australia still, I believe that's where my vote would go... despite all this, her set of core values definitely do correspond with mine best. Australian politics is usually barely a blip on the radar over here, but i found out about the PM change on a US - based yahoo page. Kinda crazy!

I think they'll get re-elected under Gillard, I also think they have a better chance of winning if they have an election sooner rather than later. She'll cream Abbott, she has always held her own against him.

Considering he doesn't have a clue what to do with it I don't think he's in danger of going deaf anytime soon.

One moment, the little tyke is fumbling with the horn, trying to figure out what to with it, and you're leaning over him thinking, "Aww! Isn't that cute?" The next moment, BLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAREEE! He figures it out, with the bell inches from your sensitive ears. And there you go. Blammo. Deaf. No more music appreciation for you!! You gotta watch those vuvuzelas.
