Do you even need to ask me?
*salutes* Mr Beazley, I've got ticker!
I think Howard is sort of stuck, he spends a lot of time talking to the media, but still he seems standoffish and, I dunno, not one of us. And I don't mean "unaustralian" or whatever, but perhaps not one of the common people.
The one time I saw him IRL, he was too busy to smile during a parade, too busy looking like a serious leader for the cameras on what should be a happy day for all... His wife could afford to smile and wave to the people below, but he couldn't?
