"Coalition of the willing" member Howard to seek 5th term in Australia

How can this guy wake up in the morning?

excerpt --Australian Prime Minister John Howard has said he will stand for a fifth term in office at elections next year.
In a letter to backbenchers, Mr Howard, 67, said that he had decided after consulting Liberal Party colleagues.

But he faces a growing rift with party treasurer Peter Costello, 48, who hopes to become Mr Howard's successor.--
