"OPPOSITION Leader Kevin Rudd says any policy promises John Howard makes at today's coalition campaign launch are irrelevant because the prime minister won't be around to take responsibility for them."

for the whole article:
PM won't be there to keep promises:Rudd | Herald Sun

correct me if I'm wrong but isn't backing out of things Rudds strategy?
with his election promise of backing out of Iraq and all

where Howard is the one staying in Iraq to stop all out civil war?


i don't check my facts religiously but those ones are a given, so does anyone present believe howards election promises and policies will work or are they going to fail?

but for the sake of fairness, interest rates although partly because of the drought have risen under howards watch.
