Morris Iemma, the worst premier in Australia has resigned. In what is undoubtedly good news for the people of New South Wales and the governing Labor Party, members of the NSW right have tapped him on the shoulder. And about time too. You can’t have a political carcass leading the state and expect to be re-elected in two and a half years time. 
Either Nathan Rees or Carmel Tebbutt is expected to be annoited leader of the Parliamentary Labor Party, but whoever takes the reins will reek of the pong of political incompetence for quite some time.
The really interesting thing is that Rees is non-aligned and Tebbutt is from the left. This means the once vice-like grip the right had on Labor Party politics in NSW is now starting to wane.
Who said rigor mortis made you stiff.
