Doyle resigns - Kennett may come back.

[phill]

Victoria's Liberal Leader Robert Doyle today resigned as Party Leader. Jeff Kennett is giving 48 hours consideration as to whether he comes back or not as Liberal Party Leader.

Robert Doyle's popularity was down to around 15%, almost comparable with Kim Beazley's.

Jeff Kennett is probably giving 48 hours consideration to see how many of his old croneys give him the thumbs up. You can tell he really needs that reassurance.

Well after 24 hours of John Winnie running around with raised eyebrows and grin on his face his old mate ain't comin' back. NOPE,
Kennett didn't get the nod, Ted Baillieu did much to PM Howards disappointment particularly after he blurted out that Kennett was the man for the job. Bracks must be p***ing himself laughing. Poor lost souls them Libs. ;D ;D

AAP News this morning reports that John Howard and other senior Liberal officials are angered that Jeff Kennett backed down from re-entering State Politics as Victoria's Liberal Leader. Any wonder, who would want the indignity of getting a thrashing at the Polls from Steve Bracks a second time.
