unlike current leaders on all sides he has been a massive success in law, business as well as public life, he knows reality better than most
in a couple of decades time when we look back on who was PM (Rudd, Gillard, Abbott) and who never made it (Costello, Turnbull) there will be a "what were we thinking??!!" moment.
The guy is so head and shoulders above his peers in terms of leadership and vision and principle its not funny.
