Australian Politics: Kevin Rudd Defeats Julia Gillard in a Caucus

Former Prime Minister, for now Minister, but soon will be again the 27th Prime Minister of Australia. In a spill caucus meeting in the Australian Labor Party tonight at 7 P.M. E.ST. time, the party voted that the ex Prime Minister Kevin Rudd should return as the party leader, and become Prime Minister. Three years ago, the same caucus, with a few different ministers, knifed him in the back and ousted him as the sitting Prime Minister. 

Speculation continues as to who will become Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, and Rudd's new chief of staff, and possibly even a new front bench.
