Dr Nelson slips his Freudian

I wonder if when the erstwhile Dr Nelson was responding to the indefatiguable Australian campaign to draft our former Formula 1 treasurer to the opposition leadership, he intended to say this:

"If Peter decides he is going to continue his political career, and serve the people of Higgins, and indeed the Liberal cause, I can assure you he will be on the frontbench with a bullet"

Would that be Mr Rudd's missing silver bullet or one to the back of the head, in the traditional manner of deserters?
