I have to agree with Paul Keating’s view on Tony Abbott that he is an “intellectual nobody" the poor mans Howard.
A quote from a man who is a wannabe? I see no difference between Abbott or Gillard. They're both liars to the hilt. In the scheme of things the result is the same.

I don't think Tony Abbot is necessarily more negative than past opposition leaders, e.g. Kim Beazely, Mark Latham, etc. And there is a lot to be negative about the current "leadership" of the ALP. :p
He seems to be critical of everything is all. I would disagree with kim Beazely being the same. After all part of the reason labor dumped him was that he was not attacking the opposition enough. latham yeah I would agree with. Guess I also remember John Hewson who deliberately took the coalition away from defending those of his party suspended from parliament if he thought they had done the wrong thing. he also didn't argue with policies he agreed with unlike howard and peacock had before him.
