The Australian Liberal government of John Howard was elected in 1998 solely because everyone was so pissed off with the Prime Ministership of Paul Keating.
I was not one of those who voted against Keating, but I could see their point.

In the election of 2001 The Labour contender was Simon Creen, who nobody was going to put in the drivers seat, so the Howard government was re-elected.

For six years we have had a default Prime Minister who has done irreperable damage, stating that he had a mandate to do this, and a mandate to do that, when all he had a mandate to do was to form a government.

But I don't know. It was a bad mistake to vote Howard in just to get rid of Keating, but it seems that it would be a good thing to get Howard out now, whatever the cost.
