    I did visit Stephane Dion’s Facebook site a few times. He posted loads of videos where he answered the questions from the public. In was impressed by his Facebook profile. Also, I ended up going to an All Candidates debate in my riding this last election because Carolyn Bennett emailed me a notice of that on Facebook. I think that as long as they can separate their professional ‘Politician’ page from a personal profile page (ie don’t do that piece at all) then I don’t have issues with them using Facebook. I think they should do Hi5 profiles as well, and Friendster too.

    I predict Dominic Leblanc will win this by hiding in a box until the convention and letting Ignatieff and Rae out-stupid each other.

    Ha ha.

    Seriously, though, isn’t this what happened in 2006? People took a look at Iggy and Rae, said, why can’t they both lose, and made it happen.

    History can repeat.

    Is it too late for another candidate to declare?

  • Anon

    Sophie, I think Maxime Bernier might. Speaking of whom, where the heck is he these days?

  • Dr Riff

    sure sophie they can all declare if they want

  • Dr Riff

    sure sophie they can all declare if they want except bernier

    or as Gumby put it……….”Oh No, it’s Mr. Bill!”

    Are you sure you want another candidate? Because old-timer Sheila Copps is suggesting that Paul Martin could run:

    Now don’t that set Liberal Party hearts a-racin’?

  • Dr Riff

    martin is ok but i suspect they’re going to go thru corporate restructuring with an interim dealer before they re-emerge with an even different leader who can actually lead

  • sw

    Your Buffy references warm my heart.

    I wonder how accurate Copps’ article is. Are Martinites seriously planning a Draft Martin campaign or is Copps’s column just idle speculation trying to make her nemesis seem even more deluded than we already think he is? Personally, I think Sheila has been drinking too much tequila but we’ll see.

  • Dr Riff

    tequila

    ‘Tisn’t tequila — it’s got to be sweet, sweet revenge on her part.

  • Dr Riff

    sheila copps is a great canadian. i hope after these others get out of the business she can rise to a prominent position once again.

  • Serious Observer

    Paul Martin should be given serious consideration. He is the Conservatives best friend. Go Paul!
