Julia Gillard did not 'knife' Kevin Rudd [He did it to himself].

Whatever your political leanings, you do need to know that Julia Gillard did not 'knife' Kevin Rudd. He brought it on himself through his own narcissism.... "a generalized personality trait characterized by egotism, vanity, conceit, or selfishness." Julia Gillard did not 'knife' Mr. Rudd ... she took decisive action to address a dysfunctional situation. She also had the good character and grace not to destroy Mr. Rudd by publicly discussing the details of his personal dysfunction. Kevin Rudd 'knifed' himself through his narcissism. Finally Australian people are hearing the truth behind the removal of Rudd. He was out of control with everyone trying to hold government together. "[Julia Gillard] knew what Rudd was like [she was the Deputy PM] . In mid-2010, I imagine, she saw him spinning out, saw the polls, saw an election approaching, believed that in this climate his capacity for chaos was likely to grow rather than diminish. This was not about ambition. Sure she might have wanted to be prime minister one day, but not under these circumstances, not with the consequences that were bound to follow. But in politics you don't get to pick your moment, it picks you. Hers came. She took it. What she and others failed to do was explain why. This was a task of almost unimaginable difficulty. She had been his deputy; she shared responsibility for the state of the government. I also imagine she did not want to add to Rudd's pain by stressing his flaws. And she would not be human ...
