The problem is, it didn't align with the powerbrokers in his party. You could see the battles being fought within the Liberals over every policy. It killed him and got him replaced with someone the right-wingers had more in common with. I think I might have voted Liberal if it was a Turnbull-Hockey ticket. Such different leadership than what we are seeing now. Tanner all the way for Labor. Although I am happy Green Adam Bandt might take his seat. Leave Bob Brown in for the Greens, if not for his public face then simply for his ability to lead the party. The party won't be so completely united in it's vision once he retires. Christine Milne on the interchange for sure. The other option would be Lee Rhiannen I guess, but that promotion would change the Greens vision dramatically towards hard-left social rather than environmental goals. It may reduce the perceived credibility of the Greens, or even fracture the party. Get Tim Costello in as an independent. Turnbull always had vision.
