Keating: How good has this show been?

[i-need-a-martini]

It's been absolutely fascinating.

I can't imagine any other politician who I would want to listen to more.

Well icy, he had the perfect response when O'Briens questioned him on how he put people off. He smiled and slowly said " Yes but how many millions loved me?".

In other words "Who gives a toss".

Don't you just love him? Interesting interviews, interesting man!

[donnashuggy]

It has been great, wish I could remember all his advice.

[i-need-a-martini]

I think the only other past PMs I would find as interesting are Menzies, Chifley and Gillard.

"some years ago senator Amanda Vanstone accused the Labor prime minister Paul Keating of behaving like the Nazi propaganda chief, Joseph Goebbels. However, this tactic is much more common on the left side of the Australian political debate"

From This Link

But the full story was about his Zegna Suits. How he chose to dress himself up in the finest Italian suits just like Herr Goebbels.

Bring him back.  He would wipe the floor with abbott.
