Kevin Rudd twists in his ear with his left index finger

Footage apparently showing the man tipped to become Australia's next prime minister eating his own ear wax has proved a hit on Internet video sharing website YouTube.

The clip of  Labor Party leader Kevin Rudd has been posted three times on the YouTube.com website and attracted more than 200,000 web browsers.

While Rudd enjoys a massive opinion poll lead heading into the November 24 election, the news website news.com.au suggested the footage "could do more damage to (his) election chances than any policy blitz".

It shows Rudd sitting on the backbenches in the Australian parliament while a colleague delivers a speech in the foreground, meaning it must date from before 2003, when he was elevated to the front bench.

As his colleague speaks, Rudd appears to gaze around in a bored manner before inserting his left index finger into his ear, twisting it a number of times then placing it into his mouth and chewing.

Washington Post blogger Emil Steiner picked up on the footage this week, describing it as "stomach churning".

"Whether Rudd is a habitual ear wax user or merely a recreational one should be irrelevant," Steiner wrote.

"The question is whether a man with so little savvy for the cameras surrounding him is fit to hold his nation's highest office. And that is a question Australians will have to answer for themselves."

One YouTube poster said Prime Minister John Howard's government should use the footage in an election advertisement, while others claimed Howard supporters had posted it in an attempt to dent Rudd's popularity.

"This happened eight years ago, funny how it only came back up within one month from an election," user 26Samuel26 said.

Another user ck867 said Rudd's apparent gaffe would not affect how people voted.

近日,一段澳大利亞總理候選人吃耳垢的視頻“轟動(dòng)”YouTube視頻網(wǎng)站。

澳大利亞工黨領(lǐng)袖陸克文(譯者注:陸克文是個(gè)“中國(guó)通”)這段吃耳垢的視頻在YouTube上出現(xiàn)了三次,已經(jīng)吸引了20多萬(wàn)的點(diǎn)擊量。

澳大利亞總理大選將于下月24日舉行,陸克文在民意調(diào)查中遙遙領(lǐng)先,澳大利亞news.com.au新聞網(wǎng)站稱,這段錄像“對(duì)于陸克文競(jìng)選成敗的影響甚于任何政策攻擊”。

從錄像的畫面上可以看到,當(dāng)時(shí)陸克文坐在議會(huì)的后排座位上,他的一個(gè)同事正在前面發(fā)言。由此可以推定這段錄像應(yīng)該拍攝于2003年以前,因?yàn)殛懣宋脑?003年得到提拔,坐到了議會(huì)前排的位置。

陸克文在這位同事發(fā)言時(shí)百無(wú)聊賴地左顧右盼,然后,他將左手的食指伸進(jìn)耳朵,在里面掏了很多下,然后把掏出來(lái)的東西放進(jìn)嘴里嚼了起來(lái)。

《華盛頓郵報(bào)》的博客寫手埃米爾?斯坦納于本周看了這段視頻后發(fā)表評(píng)論說(shuō),這段錄像“令人反胃”。

他在博客中寫道:“究竟是陸克文有吃耳垢的癖好,還是僅僅出于無(wú)聊,這都不重要?!?/font>

“問(wèn)題在于一個(gè)對(duì)攝像機(jī)如此不敏感的人能否當(dāng)一個(gè)國(guó)家的最高領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。這可是澳大利亞人需要考慮的問(wèn)題?!?/font>

YouTube的一位網(wǎng)友發(fā)貼稱霍華德總理應(yīng)在他的競(jìng)選宣傳廣告中利用這段錄像,而另一些網(wǎng)友則認(rèn)為這是霍華德總理的支持者為打擊陸克文的人氣而搞的鬼。

網(wǎng)友26Samuel26說(shuō):“這是八年前的事了,而它偏偏在離大選只有一個(gè)月的時(shí)候冒了出來(lái)?!?/font>

網(wǎng)友ck867說(shuō),陸克文的這段錄像不會(huì)影響選民的態(tài)度。
