Can anyone tell me why people now hate Kevin Rudd?

Yes, he reminds me of Tim Brooke-Taylor (google if you don't know who I'm talking about).
Yes the "fair shake of the sauce bottle" thing was incredibly try-hard.
But, wasn't he the head of a whole entire party? Didn't they & even the opposition have to reach some sort of accord to enact legislation? Didn't Australia manage to miss the worst of the Global Financial Crisis? Did he personally screw up the insulation? I'm pretty sure that one was a group effort.
I just don't get why people think changing the person at the top of the pile will change the entire party's policies or the whole country somehow.

When Kevin Rudd became Prime Misnister, I was afraid of what his leadership would mean to Australia. I believe Kevin Rudd's vision for Australia was well intentioned. I believe he is a genuinely compassionate man, I've seen sincerity in this man when Australia and other countries have faced incredible crisis. I think this is a decent man, who had Australia's interests at heart, but unfortunately was never given the chance to meet his full potential in an extremely challenging roll. I admire Kevin Rudd, and though there were mistakes made under his leadership, I don't believe there was any malice intended on his part, and I do think his intentions were highly admirable.
