The Turnbull Gamble

The Liberal party took a risk replacing Tony Abbott with Malcolm Turnbull. They had seen voters turn against the ALP when it took down a first term Prime Minister. By the time he called the election it was still unclear what Turnbull wanted to achieve as prime minister. He was strangely underprepared for a job that he had fought so long to win. Turnbull leads a party whose culture he doesn't share. He is interested in policy but is not passionate about any policy in particular. While the narrow win may have justified the gamble to place him in office, does Turnbull have the leadership qualities to break the cycle of division and instability of the last decade?
