I agree 100%.

At least - I hope he's the right man for the job. I'm not really entirely convinced just yet - but he has certainly looked good up to now, and I am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Also, given that it is only a matter of time before Turnbull becomes Leader of the Opposition - I actually feel the same way about him too. The idea of having two intelligent, capable and (it appears) relatively honourable men leading our major parties is such a novelty after the crap of the last 11 years. I hope I am not being too overly optimistic.
