Schadenfreude

From the Sydney Morning Herald website;

PRESSURE is expected to build on John Howard's leadership in coming days with the latest Herald/Nielsen poll showing Labor powering ahead of the Coalition and the personal popularity of the Labor leader, Kevin Rudd, soaring to a record high.

Now if Rudd can keep from giving Howard an overpowering handshake five minutes before the polls open, we might just have a change of leadership on our hands! And then we can go right back to being frustrated by the lack of equality for anyone who isn't middle-to-upper-class, white, straight and focused on having / maintaining a nuclear family.

Is it too much to hope for a benevolent dictatorship? Because if we had that set up I'd totally want Bootsy Collins to be our loving overlord. He could be the Grand High Minister in charge of the Parliament of Funkadelic.

You just do your thing, Bootsy!
