Lateline - ABC
Peter Costello gave a fine performance on Lateline tonight. The transcript is not up yet, but you can watch the video already.
He does not give any impression of a man who will be caught up in extended bitterness over what could have been. Disappointed, sure, but not full of bile and bitterness.
The difference between how John Howard and Peter Costello have handled the election defeat, compared to Keating and Latham, is remarkable. (It's true that on the Labor side, Kim Beazley was a good loser, but he seemed a bit too comfortable in that role for the good of the Party!)
Kim Beazley was a good loser - one of the best - he turned losing into an art form.
