Rudd rat-fucks Gillard

Gillard is in trouble. And it is not Tony Abbott doing the damage, but almost certainly .

A poll has the coalition ahead 52% to 48%, and on radio said that he had heard that Labor's was not looking good in the all important marginal . So how has it happened?

Well first there was the leak to Laurie Oakes about the deal with Rudd for him to stay on until October, which Gillard walked away from. As only three people witnessed it, not hard to guess who put that out there.

Then came the leak that in Cabinet Gillard fought against Labor's paid parental leave scheme. This has damaged her amongst “babyland”. Gillard also tried to limit pension increases – I am liking her more and more. But the public are not. And again no prizes for guessing the likely leaker.

And the latest leak also has Rudd all over it – a revelation that Gillard sometimes sent her bodyguard to meetings of the Cabinet committee. That one may be especially damaging.

And in case there is much doubt it is Rudd, Alexander Downer reveals that the former Liberal Government used to feed info to Rudd when he was a junior Labor MP, knowing Rudd would use it to undermine the Labor Foreign Affairs Spokesperson, as Rudd wanted his job.

Is it just me, or do Rudd and seem somewhat alike – both try and rat-fuck their leaders, because they had their travel perks and status taken away?
