The Ghost of Costelloes Past.
"Mr Hockey will not challenge Mr Turnbull for the job, but is willing to step up if his leader resigns.
If you're having a bad day and are really bored here's more.
(OTOH, this is far more engaging and entertaining.)

Rob Hulls obviously inhales.
ACTING Premier Rob Hulls today defended transport minister Lynne Kosky’s performance, saying she was doing a “fantastic job”.
“I think Lynne Kosky is doing a fantastic job in relation to the transport plan, I think Lynne Kosky is a very passionate Minister and I think all Ministers in the Brumby Government are passionate about their portfolios and Lynne is no exception,” he said.
"Peace, mung beans, kaftans and Passiona, dudes."

Did you really mean to say that, Frances?
Bin Laden powerless despite new video: White House.
“This is about the best he can do. This is a man on the run from a cave who is virtually impotent ...” - Frances Townsend, President George W Bush's homeland security adviser

Since when has the Rodent not practiced the dark art of the unequivocal, unambiguous, 'now you see it, now you don't' weasel clause?
APEC leaders have signed up to the ‘Sydney Declaration’ on climate change, which Prime Minister John Howard says forges a new international consensus on the challenge of global warming
The APEC consensus, said Howard, is “a very important milestone in the march towards a sensible international agreement on climate change.”
“This declaration does transcend a number of international divisions,” he said, noting it’s the first such gathering on climate change to include both China and the United States in endorsing “a long-term aspirational global emissions reduction goal.”
If you look closely in between those cast iron, fairy floss 'milestone' paragraphs we reckon you might spot these heavily penciled in phrases - "core aspirational goals", "non-core aspirational goals" and "never ever".

Poke your head up Mark Latham - that which you stated as the bleeding obvious is now proven beyond fact ... and then some.
US President George W Bush has mistaken the name of the conference he’s travelled halfway around the world to attend, in front of a summit of business leaders in Sydney.
Mr Bush, in Australia to attend the Apec (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) summit of world leaders, took to the stage at the Sydney Opera House this morning and thanked Prime Minister John Howard for his introduction and for being such a “kind host” for the Opec (Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries) summit.
Mr Bush also stumbled over his pronunciation of Jemaah Islamiah, the regional terror network.
And in another miscue, he botched the host country’s name, referring to Mr Howard’s visit to Iraq in 2006 as a thank-you to “the Austrian troops there.”
Mark Latham described George W. Bush as "the most incompetent and dangerous president in living memory."
Mark, me ole sadly consigned to the waste paper basket of history china, you might have seriously f'k'd up a lot of things but on this'n ... there'd be few who would take issue with your observations.
Attention deficit disorder anyone? And there were unkind people who used to say that Gerry Ford couldn't chewify gum and walk at the same time!
