Gillard's danger is too opposite to Rudd in vision

Comments on David Burchell “Let grandiose plans wither on the vine”, 29/11/2010, http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/let-grandiose-plans-wither-on-the-vine/story-fn59niix-1225962381497
Burchell says: "The worst mistake would be to seek emancipation from Rudd by emulating him. We have no more call for high-flown self-kiddery and flamboyant insincerity. We can live without the grandiose self-puffery and fantastical self-conceptions. Least of all do we need any more prime ministerial philosophy lectures."

That is unlikely to be the case with Gillard. To the contrary, Gillard is in danger of being too far to the other extreme: lack of vision.

That is itself a serious problem for her and the government – no policy but poor ones.

With such a government as Gillard as the PM and its core, as well as the Rudd legacy to reflect, the nation will pay a hefty price!
