Aussies keen to drink wine with PM: poll

Most people would rather sit down over a glass of wine with Prime Minister Kevin Rudd than their partner.

But even the PM can't beat actor Hugh Jackman, who has topped a poll as the drinking buddy of choice.

A survey of more than 1,200 people found model Jennifer Hawkins came second - although she was much more popular among men than women.

Mr Rudd came third, rating more highly among women wine-drinkers than the men.

He was followed by comedian Rove and actress Nicole Kidman. "Partner" came in 6th place, just ahead of TV veteran Bert Newton.

The poll was commissioned by wine company Lindemans.
