Rudd Sighting

Newspoll released figures describing him as "Australia's most popular Prime Minister" ... about five minutes before the man himself received a knock on his office door in the middle of the night (what was he even doing there at that time?) by the "faceless men of the Australian Labor Party", and like a streaker who is surrounded by a dozen, black-clad security guards in the middle of the MCG, was led-off through the Halls of Power with flaming cheeks and helpless, slumped shoulders.

So where does one go when, one minute you're the leader of the free world*, darling of both the Chinese and the Australian political Left (not known for seeing eye-to-eye), and saviour of the Australian Aid and Development Industry; and the next you're ... well, what exactly is he doing now?

As it transpires, I find myself watching a lot of children's TV these days, and just this morning I happened to come across a very down-and-out Kevin Rudd, clearly crawling his way back into the work force any way that he can.

Poor Kevin ... I would have thought, in light of Therese's business interests being a worth a bomb, such denigration may have been a little extreme.

* or at-least an un-strategic, economically and geographically insignificant portion of it.
