Beazley without hindsight, Rudd with.

If the Australian Labor Party could go back in time today and reverse the result of any internal leadership battle, it would certainly (if in a lucid state of thought) pick one of the two in which Beazley failed to be elected (December 2003 or December 2006).

Imaging myself as a Laborite again, Beazley (Western Australian)

Not sure. Perhaps Beazley would've kept the party better in line, but his campaigns from what I've read (I was like 6 when he was first Opposition Leader Tongue) were uninspiring in contrast to Kevin 07 (which was pretty good, though nothing on Obama 08 I have to say).

Likely would've preferred Julia to run, but it's also likely her first term may have fallen into a flaming wreck of destruction.

Even an uninspiring campaign would have beaten Howard in 2007.
