Whatever his reasons for resigning, Steve Bracks should be applauded for both the job he has done in Victoria and his decision to walk away from the addictive power game. Like Bob Carr he knows that you don't have to be the last to leave to know you enjoyed the party. Despite hypocritical accusations by the Howard government of his playing politics over the Murray-Darling, Steve fought the PM to the end. He has been an example of 'what you see is what you get'. Howard wouldn't know what that means. He should have pulled the plug years ago and got a life.
If Labor wins the election this year, Bracks will have played an important role in showing that Labor has a better way than the divisive and heartless approach of people like Jeff Kennett and John Howard.

Great blog Kevin but can't agree with you about Steve Bracks. He has really let the voters down by bailing out now, just as the going is starting to get tough. It's hard to believe that a man of his obvious stature could be influenced by his son on a binge. It's really not good enough.
