I can't stand you but I really don't want you to resign....

Reports are flying around this morning that today is the last day in the reign of J-Ho and that tomorrow Peter Costello will be PM.

Nooooooo!

I want to see that bastard crushed in Bennelong, to see him make that conciliatory speech on election night after the Libs get reemed. I want to see him be held to account for the shocking decisions he has made as leader of this country. Is that really too much to ask??

Furthermore, am I kidding myself by thinking that the latter will happen?? What if we lose this thing..... *gulps*

Update:

Kim Beazley has weighed in on the debate stating that Peter Costello will be Prime Minister in a week and Kevin Rudd PM by the end of the year.

And Adam Carr, a well respected political analyst has posted the following on pollbludger.com:

"My Parliament House spies tell me that the Liberal staffers all expect Howard to be gone tomorrow. It looks like it’s really happening."

It's looking less and less likely that my dreams of seeing Howard making his concilatory speech on election night will be realised......Dang.
