LeBlanc Out...

...Dion expected to resign this week, and the leadership race rumoured to be moved up. And here we thought all the political insanity had been prorogued until January, eh?

As a LeBlanc supporter I'm obviously disappointed by this turn of events. I never expected Dominic to win, but felt he had a lot to bring to this race - especially on the issues of party renewal and of growing the party outside the GTA.

I do think that by dropping out, Dominic has missed a golden opportunity to showcase his many talents, but I'll leave it to him to explain his reasoning come tomorrow.


UPDATE: The talk of caucus appointing the leader? Ain't gonna happen. Not a chance. I should probably know better by now than to use the "not dumb enough" argument on anything the LPC does, but I have to think that the Liberal Party is not dumb enough to actually try something like that. It wouldn't serve anyone's interests. Not Rae's. Not Ignatieff's.
