Rudd sweeps to power in Australian election:

SYDNEY - Australia's centre-left opposition leader Kevin Rudd swept into power in a landslide election victory, ending conservative Prime Minister John Howard’’s 11-year rule.

Howard, US President George W. Bush's closest ally in the Iraq war, conceded defeat in Sydney, wishing Rudd well and telling him that he was inheriting an economy that is the envy of the world.

‘A few minutes ago I telephoned Mr Rudd and I congratulated him and the Australian Labor Party on a very emphatic victory,’ Howard told emotional supporters in a gracious concession speech at a Sydney hotel.

Congrats Labor party!
