Eagle Yes, it is grim for Turnbull. A man with his talents should be exuding more charisma and putting pressure on the government of the day, but seems to be more of a yapping dog than anything else. Talks a lot (like Rudd) but everyone covers their ears when they hear. I think a Costello / Hockey duo would be the Coalitions best chances of pulling back some seats at the next election.
The results are more of a disillusionment of left wingers over the government's performance, hence increasing support for the Greens (God help us if they take government!).
