Which idiot put Bob Carr's name forward?

So “Mr Carr released a statement yesterday confirming that "party officers had talked to him about the possibility of him filling the NSW Senate vacancy and be able to be considered for the office of foreign minister". But he added that "Prime Minister Gillard had definitely not made any offer about the foreign affairs ministry nor had any one on her behalf".

Now which idiot even considered this man as a suitable candidate?

This is the same man who - for no good reason other than he felt like it – quit mid-term as NSW Premier and Maroubra MP causing a state by-election.

The same man who - after talking a lot of guff about wanting to take time in retirement to enjoy the beauty of Sydney – parachuted straight into lucrative positions with major multinationals and placed himself on the corporate speakers circuit.

The same one-eyed adorer of all things American who if let anywhere near national policy would take us down the yellow brick road and into a disastrous U.S. style political system.

The very same opinionated man who in 2005 swore he had no intention of going to Canberra.

UPDATE:

"JULIA Gillard has dramatically asserted her authority as Prime Minister, naming former NSW premier Bob Carr as her new minister for foreign affairs....He confirmed he would seek re-election at the next election, saying he was a “natural senator”.
There goes the NSW vote in 2013!
