John Armstrong: Does National have a Cullen in its ranks?

John Armstrong: Does National have a Cullen in its ranks?

"This is the Cullen that the public has tired of and grown to dislike - the quick-tongued, arrogant-sounding smarty pants who was grudgingly slow to get his head around personal tax cuts."

^Well that's certainly the Cullen I've got to know.  But there's no doubt he's an effective operator - just a shame about his ideology.  In fact with Cullen holding so many important portfolios one wonders what the PM actually does. 

But to answer Armstrong's questions - Bill English first springs to mind.  But in terms of being a Mr Fix-it I reckon none other than John Key will fill that role.  It's going to be interesting to watch which National ministers will shine in their up and coming administration.
