Barrie Cassidy revives the past!

The ABC Insiders is getting so far up itself it is in danger of becoming lost in its own conspiracy theories. Cassidy (now turned commentator) has recalled the Keating/Hawke and Peacock/Howard machinations to set up an unlikely but nevertheless headline grabbing scenario in which Rudd calls for a leadership votes loses and goes to the backbench to have another suck on the sauce bottle!   Grattan, Schubert, Tingle and now Cassidy et al should cut the interminable guess work and do what a good journo does and get some facts and put on record the meanderings and menacing of politicians and their bedfellows and we will all be better off!
