Before Christmas.

Great line from Mungo Macallum on Q&A last night: Costello’s even too lazy to write his own autobiography.

Cue Minchin’s well practised line in confected outrage – hardest working parliamentarian in the history of the universe, can leap tall piles of budget estimates in a single bound, etc etc etc.

OK: a small prize should be offerred to the first citizen who sees the Costello self-hagiography on a remainders table. Any bets on the date?

Don’t forget the sterling work he did for Dollar Sweets adrian – surely that’d be worth a position as the oldest junior barrister in the world with some commercial law firm …

The real problem is of course that the poor man hasn’t got a better offer, which is really surprising, given the fact that he was the world’s greatest treasurer.

Hey, I think even the Liberal Party has had enough. Or maybe they are really really slow learners.

Seeing that the Tip learnt everything from the rodent, language usage is important “I will not nominate or challenge” ” I will leave Parliament at my own choosing” BUT being drafted cajoled riding on a donkey into Jerusalem aka JC are left unsaid or pehaps I am being paranoid anyway he is a lost cause either way Joe public has had enough

Costello wouldnt have won the last election anyway (despite his claims). Australians had had enough of the spin, lies, inhumanity and sole focus on economics that was the hallmark of the Howard/Costello regime. Change is in the air worldwide. Perhaps its better to risk the new than continue down the dark path we’ve been on.

Probably right wpd.
He’s a sad case really. Classic 2IC schoolboy mentality, hooting from behind the father/leader figure.
