Howard: election strategy backfires!

Kevin Rudd and the ALP have reached unprecedented heights of popularity while the Howard Government's support is sliding, according to a new poll.

The AC Nielsen poll, published in Fairfax newspapers today, shows Labor would easily win an election on a two-party preferred vote of 61 per cent to the coalition's 39 per cent.

The result shows a three point swing to Labor over the past month and reveals the government's concerted attack on Mr Rudd's integrity and judgement has backfired.
