[QUOTE]Originally posted by Curry Monster: [QB] Greetings all. Good to be back :) Mr Butler does have a point. I am just seeing some very intersting parrellels between Obama and our new PM, Kevin Rudd. Rudd was literally swept to power on the promise of commitment, change, protecting the working class (etc). Very good at public speaking, has a number of languages under his belt and all that. He's also in his mid forties. Its been some time since the election and I almost miss the conservatives. Reason: Rudd spends more time on airplanes and coming up withgrand vision schemes than he seems to spend on dealing with grass roots social and commercial problems. So far, I'm not impressed by the current Australian Labour Govt. I have a nagging feeling that Barack may also raise hopes too high. I don't think he will be another Kennedy (or for that matter Clinton). I hope I am wrong, and certainly anything is better than another 8 years of the GOP, but I would urge people to not expect change too fast or in too great a form if Obama wins, simply because only once he is in the hot seat will we see what he can actually do, rather than how good he is at public speaking. :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
