Kelvin Rudd is gone.

Julia Gillard is a new PM now.

Could she be like a Helen Clark from NZ?

I think she will handle... If you look at her past.. She is always an active player in Parliament.. She is non-religious as well....

She has the ability to run the country...

As Per BBC:

"Mr Rudd started this year as the most popular Australian prime minister in three decades and was widely expected to win the federal election expected in October with ease.

But his popularity plummeted following a number of policy setbacks, our correspondent adds.

He shelved the centrepiece of his environmental strategy, an Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), which led to accusations of political cowardice.

Mr Rudd then entered into an advertising war with the country's powerful mining sector over his plans for a super tax on their "super profits"."

I personally think, this war took him to disaster ...
