YouTube: Kevin Rudd gets an earful

kevinrudd.gif Footage apparently showing the man tipped to become Australia's next prime minister eating his own ear wax during Question Time - 6 years ago - has now become a hit on YouTube. The Telegraph reports.

"Over 180,000 web surfers have watched four different clips of the Labor Party leader Kevin Rudd on the video sharing website.

The footage was taken at least six years ago, when the Member for Griffith was still on the backbench.

Mr Rudd, who has enjoyed a substantial lead in opinion polls heading into the November 24 election, may now face a backlash, according to news.com.au, which suggested the footage "could do more damage to (his) election chances than any policy blitz".
