Wayne Swan, who has been the ALP shadow treasurer for ages.

He's ready and qualified for the job, has an economics and academic background and has some astute and conservative policy directions. He is also listening to the RBA which has been continually warning the Liberals for years about our skills crisis driving up inflation and interest rates. It will be very interesting to see him perform.
For a fascinating insight into his perspectives and social conscience, read this review of the book "Postcode" which he recently published:

The selection of the new Treasurer under Kevin Rudd as Prime Minister is not yet determined although there might be prospects already.

Who knows! I'm very worried about this? What have Australians done???
Australians voted Rudd in for one reason really. It was greed!
They only want more money. You watch, Rudd will spend up big and will destroy the Australian economy as a result!
We have lost a wonderful leader in Mr Howard!
God please bless Australia!
