Abbott will down in history as probably the worst ever Australian Prime Minister.
He was an embarrassment domestically and internationally.
His own party finally realised this and that he would lose the next election so saved their own necks and dumped him.
Joe Hockey will also go down in history as one our worst ever Treasurers.
It's a step forward for the country to get rid of these two clowns.
The other big losers tonight are Bill Shorten and the Labor Party.
With Abbott as leader, especially if he was wounded by yet another leadership challenge, Labor was almost certain of victory at the next election.
But with the very popular Turnbull as leader, the Liberal Party are almost certain to win the next election and condemn Labor to many years in opposition with Shorten dumped as leader.
I think Turnbull and the Libs will be around for a very long time.
That's the way I see it anyway ...
Then again I had money on Souths to beat The Sharks yesterday.
