Anyone have any thoughts or feelings they'd like to share with the group?

No, not really. *sigh*
I was starting to wonder if he was in fact having some sort of psychological crisis; it would explain his apparent mental paralysis over the last few weeks...

I think its a case of jumping off before your pushed. Latham lost momentum after the election and never regained it.

Although I was never a big fan of Latham as a leader (I'm a Kimbo fan myself ), I think he was treated very harshly....put into leadership so close ot an election and then everyone blaming him when they didn't win (surely they would have known that people would be unsure of someone who had only been around such a short time?) and then being attacked when he got sick, for no other reason I could see than that he was sick.
It makes me think a little less of the Party.

I quite like Kimbo too - it'll do no harm if he gets his old job back. Then again, Julia Gillard is tolerable too.
The ALP needs a rebuild. It's no longer clear what it's for.
