Poll Surge for Abbott as Rudd goes batty

Encouraging news for Tony Abbott and his supporters: A Sun Herald Taverner poll has voter support for the coalition and Labor at 50% each.

I rarely comment on polls because they are a bit like Jon Stanhope: subjective, generally not very reliable, and can't always be taken seriously. Don't tell this to that harbinger of conservative annihilation, Andrew Catsaras, however, whom I am betting will come out with a piece very soon on how this latest poll is somehow disastrous for the coalition. (Andrew Bolt likes quoting Catsaras, so you will probably read about it there before I can be bothered.)
