The Coup that never was.

In a stroke of absolute genius The Federal Labor Party today treated us to The Coup that never was. Was MP Simon Crean's stroke of genius - calling for a spill when nobody dared to stand against the Prime Minister -designed to take the media attention away from the embarassing backdown on the much maligned Media law reform proposals? Or was it the ALP providing a multiple non event smokescreen in Canberra for Barry OFarrell to pass his End of Silence laws in NSW?? Could it be that the geniuses in the Labor Party actually fucked up??
The ALP showed us this:
  If dear leader Julia Gillard should fall over or quit ,nobody is prepared to lead the Labor Party into the political wilderness on September 14th.
