The Old Boys -- um, the Old Idiots

If the Liberal Party is supposed to be going through a renewal process, it's going to be a very messy one with former roommates Bob Rae and Michael Ignatieff already throwing the gloves off. Rae accused Ignatieff of trying to keep the press out of an all candidate forum. The latter said he presumed that it was a private meeting before party executives.

Iggy was my second rank choice last time out (behind Gerard Kennedy who isn't running this time), but if both he and Rae Day are going to act like most of the other brats that come out of Upper Canada College then maybe it's time both stepped aside and some new ideas be allowed to be injected into the system. We don't need idiots running the party, especially Old Boys -- we need leaders and Rae and Ignatieff are acting anything but like leaders right out of the gate. Disgusting.

I mean really. A former Ontario Premier who busted the budget, and a Harvard Professor. Wow. How did people expect they would act?

Well said.

The last 24 hours have been a reminder of all the reasons I didn't support either of these guys last time.

Leblanc looks like the best option.
