Queenslanders have “a very soft spot” in their hearts for Kevin Rudd, whose political stocks are as high as they ever were, former premier Peter Beattie says.

Mr Beattie, who heaped praise on Julia Gillard a month before she deposed Mr Rudd as prime minister last year, is now spruiking the former leader's importance to the Labor party.

Today's Fairfax-Nielsen poll found 39 per cent support for Kevin Rudd as the preferred Labor leader, ahead of Ms Gillard on 34 per cent.

“We've been family home for the last two weeks and a bit [and] Kevin is incredibly well regarded right here, you can see that, and obviously his stocks are as high as they ever were,office 2010 Standard keygen,” Mr Beattie told Fairfax Media.

“No doubt Queenslanders have a very soft spot for Kevin in their hearts and obviously he is therefore very instrumental in whatever can be done about selling Queensland being open for business to the world because he's well regarded but there's certainly an enormous amount of warmth to Kevin in Queensland.”

Mr Beattie's feedback in support of Mr Rudd,microsoft office 2010 64bit key, which echoed feedback made in another media interview yesterday,microsoft office pro 2010 product key, appear to represent a shift in his public feedback on the federal political scene.

In May last year, a month before the federal leadership challenge,microsoft office Standard keygen, Mr Beattie said Ms Gillard was one of the most talented people in Australian politics and would be a “brilliant” prime minister.

Mr Beattie said today he did not want to comment on whether he now thought it was a mistake for Ms Gillard to have seized the prime ministership from Mr Rudd, now foreign affairs minister.

“I still think she's a good lady and the beauty about that is that you've got two strong people,genuine office 2007 license, they work together, there's a great outcome for the country,” he said.

Mr Beattie said Mr Rudd's plan to get the message out to ambassadors that the state was open for business was “very clever”. Ambassadors were “the chattering class”, he said.

Today's Fairfax-Nielson poll was a disastrous result for a government struggling to sell its carbon tax plans following Ms Gillard's pre-election assurance that there would “be no carbon tax under the government I lead”.

On a two-party-preferred basis, Labor trailed the Coalition 54 per cent to 46 per cent.

The past week has been dominated by news about the proposed carbon tax, Ms Gillard's visit to the United States, and reports of a rift between Ms Gillard and Mr Rudd over action in strife-torn Libya.
